I just purchased a months worths of picks for Gulfstream from the site which

advertised here on the board. Track tips daily and after a so so beginning

the picks were horrendous. After one winner which paid under $6 on an 11

race card I get an email which touts what a great day they had on Saturday

at Santa Anita. I emailed him back and asked him what about the picks I

already are paying for at Gulfstream? He had no idea or didn't want to

admit to the lousy win percentage over the past 2 weeks of the service.

I immediately canceled and I got an e-mail from Gerald Rogers canceling

my subscription. I was wondering if this is Sprint Rogers because this is the

same sort of stuff I've been reading about him. Anyway that was my one

and done dealings with a selection service but I figured they would know

precisely what their record was at each track. I checked his picks and lots

of times in short fields he would pick the 7 or 8 to one shot figuring one

of them has to hit and when it does he'll plaster that victory all over the

place forgetting he just missed 25 in a row. Like Mike Warren on his pro

football selection show he'd pick all the games and the next week he'd edit

out all the losers so it looked like that old rascal hit 7 for 7.

No this guy is one of the sponsored links there is no problem there

My gripe is I am paying for gulfstream picks and in 30+ races you hit a

$6 winner and many losers which I understand happens in horse racing but

then don't turn around and send me an email about how great you did at

Santa Anita on a day you sucked at Gulfstream. When I quizzed him on

how his Gulfstream picks were doing he didn't want to admit to the fact the

past couple of weeks sucked. I told him I was more interested in the picks

I was paying for as opposed to one hot day at another track. I only bought

picks because I was using Danny Holmes ABC money management to see

if you could win with professional handicappers like he did in his study.

For the past 3 weeks at Gulfstream you COULD NOT using Doc James.
