Look I know Sartin would eliminate horse thru form to get down to 5 contenders in a race, and Jim the hat Bradshaw did the same. The reason I rate most of the horses is I want to see the effects of all of them on the pace and I also play a lot of exotics, sometimes I wish I could just make straight bets and parlays. Crazy right.
One more point. If you come up with a horse like the 12 and you don’t wheel him up and down, you will feel lower than pond scum if you miss cashing. I know because in 2005 I liked Closing Argument at 71-1 and didn’t come away with the exacta. Look at this years derby, 21-3 paid $4000. What if the 3 and 5 weren’t there, suppose the 13 was second. He was 19-1 and not 9/2 like the 3. I think that # would have been at least $15000.
