I'll assume you're implying that it takes inside info to beat a maiden race? It might help but I highly doubt a guy like Covello needs inside info to take your money. As he mentioned, he uses the TG figures to anchor his handicapping... you can hate all you want but he and Byk are correct... they're worth every penny. It's the difference between buying your groceries at Whole Foods vs Walmart. Whole Foods is not for everyone... I understand.

Also the pick 6 at GP you're referring to was a mandatory payout day... it was hit by many that day and was far from impossible.

It seems to me like we need more guys like him to move this game along for the next generation and less chronic whiners like yourself.
I agree---and it's really wrong to take shots at Covello, who unless he's been faking it in every post he's made online for the past decade is one of the nicest guys in the game.

Nice guy or not....DEEP pockets & INSIDE information mean ENORMOUS advantage....and ALL of us posting here WOULD LIKE such a deal...

it is what it is...til it ain't...

By the way....they (tracks/racing officials)...REALLY try to catch people using stimulants & pain killers ect...but NOT depressants so much...hhhmmmm.....a little valerian mix in with oats & hay...anybody?

He can't track himself.

Accelerate added blinkers last time for the first time in his career. It seemed to make a huge difference. I also think Collected will lead but with the long run to the first turn I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if Accelerate took command.

Yea this card is pretty good so the title of the OP is a little silly.

Man Tom Amoss just crushed Arrogates chances off the last race and work.

If the horse is doing that bad why is Baffert running him, not his style. Very confusing.

I thought it was a really good card overall.

I have watched about 150 replays this weekend, i was a bit surprised at at the field sizes, there are more big fields than I can recall. I guess the message got through, they are still down but at least the product has been better.
