Thanks Ritchie,

Here's the 6th using MPH

Bill,I know how you feel I have been having some rough sledding as well.It seems like most of my horses are running 2nd and also some dumb decisions as well.On Sunday the 5th at CT I ran this race through energy and it came up with the 10 horse at 9-2.It was 1st on paragon a,b and energizer.But I still percieved it as early and thought there was too much speed in the race.Also the regular rider was on another horse instead.I then went to my 2nd choice the 9 who was 36-1.I play him to win and use him with 2 other horses in the ex.Needless to say it came in 10-9 and paid over 200 bucks which I didnt have.The 9 paid 28.00 to place which I didnt back up as well.Time for me to take a break.Jeff

sorry to hear that ..
If I can I would suggest a strong base
staying with one program or the Match Up five steps,
for example, Either without software, Or to aid you with contender /pace line selection while using software -a method I am using -
listing many programs and then doing races over with other
programs always hurts me
I am fighting this battle too
I hate to paper bet but it might work for you or just bet very small
Work to build a strong base,then add bits of info you read about
Make 20 race cycles and just set goals to improve on each one by one more winner, or more important a better ROI
I find the extra winner works best in this goal setting
As the ROI, while very important can be distorted by one very large $63.00 winner. Of course its great but the extra winners build the confidence and the big winners always come around
The trouble is, without a strong base your most likely zigging
and zagging and paper betting when they do
Hope you get back that winning feeling

Bill

Bill,Thanks for the advice.Jeff

why MPH and what "trans " are you using A or B. did you use the 2 line average? and speaking of 2nd and 3rd finishes. I suffer this many times. my 9-1 shot gets caught at the wire by the chaulk. One of the "guys" (i think T Brohamer or Mithel) suggests to play 1 unit to win and 2 units to place. this helps ease the "pain"
