Depends on how much you know the game and the circuit. I have to imagine White only follows SA and the other major So Cal tracks, so he has more time than i do (for example) to "know the horses". I watch other tracks as well as SA and i knew that this horse in question is a crud, it didnt take me much time to dig for a specific note on the horse unraveling physically in his Apr 6th win and then falling off the map for 7 or 8 months.
Its easy to blow one if you are handicapping a race with a lot of unknowns...but, why would White not know that specific horse is a stinker who looked "off" in April and disappeared after the win? That horse has a ton of So Cal races and has hung badly and stunk in most of them. What's there to think about?
