Made a mistake and left the 9 out of my Tri. for a $236 mistake. Oh well onward as I quickly erased it, a negative influence idea that can't be allowed to live in your mind.

As I said before a valid question always is how can I make money out of this race. (winner paid $4.60) Looking at the Ex. matrix even the two US favorites were 2 & 3, 3& 2 would have paid $18 which I thought was generous. Got the 8 & 9 by evaluating the PP's for what was given. Deducted reasoning.

Of course it goes without saying the proper mindset is essential to good handicapping. One must free the mind for the task at hand to fully utilize one's ability and senses.

Nice score Mitch. About time the monkey went back to work.

Not to be a contrarian here but after the fact we can all find a reason to have bet or have a longshot. Winners are easy after the fact and hindsight is always 100%.


Practice what you preach

Good Morning
 

Hey Mitch

Congrats on the win Glad to see the monkey hit again :1:

Have a great day,

I wish I could join in today, Tomorrow, I will be back for Santa Anita

Shoe: Ahh the talking shoe with the last word. This wasn't after the fact as my tickets were bet and had to be bet before the race . Hello!! Anybody home?


Additionally as many can attest I have posted many winners here that were being discussed. I don't believe you have ever posted a winner that I'm aware of. Enlighted me if you can. You will never get into my head or effect my game, winners overcome diversity. Later talking shoe.

Thanks Bill and Tim, I appreciate it. I have actually been posting less as my priorities are elsewhere. The Monkey has had some scores but I didn't put them up. This race wasn't necessarily a big price but the profit from nothing PP's was a rewarding factor more so than the amount of money won. Bradshaw always said" You have to use what you have."

The take away was two things: 1. tailor the bet to take advantage of your analysis and handicapping,2. rid yourself of negative influences whether health or NIP's. Such as Tim's painful sciatic nerve yesterday.


Good health men to all,

Mitch

Doesnt matter your still talking about the race after it has won

As far as winners go I wouldnt even attempt to give out a winner
due to the fact Im the worst handicapper here.

But in the past did get lucky and gave out a 10-1 shot at Woodbine
not due to a program but a trainer pattern.

Have a nice day and keep it up with the races that have already been run

Hi Mitch and Jeff

Please keep these threads on topic . Please maybe you can get together in private to discuss your differences.

Mitch, you did a great job, thank you for posting when you can

There is nothing wrong with posting, as you did here.
The follow up is full of winners who show their winning tickets

Pace and Cap = Friends helping friends win
Pace and Cap = Carrying forward the Follow-up Journals

I'm just doing these as they come up between races. Was doing both Parx & OP.Now just OP. The Monkey struck again at Op with this EX.
