The only time i consider jockeys and trainers and all that noise is for cheaper Maiden claiming races. For example, at Fairgrounds on derby day saturday, in the first race which was a cheap maiden claimer, i had 4 contenders but did not want to bet the race because of the fact that they were not strong contenders. However, i had made note that the #10 was getting a rider change from a bug boy, to one of the best jocks in Louisiana for a trainer with no wins at the meet. He won at 8/1 and was a good start to my day. This doesn't always work, but i have taken note that in cheap maiden races is the best time to use this approach when you have weak contenders and the race offers some value.
