Watching the show again, I did see a few episodes when it was originally on Esquire tv It brought back memories of John Conte who I met in Las Vegas
a few years ago at a casino(can't remember which one it was) Anyway this was just a few months after the racebooks went mutual and we were allowed to use computer's Conte asked what we were doing and my friend Steve tried to explain some of the ideas behind the Sartin methodology,
He was a complete and uninterested indivdiual(this isl conservative site so I won't actually tell you what I thought of him!)
He was loud and proclaimed to all around us that we were NUTS! Horses don't care about pace at all! Final time is the only way to play this game! I gave up and moved my seat but my friend was determined to argue with this guy.
He argued for almost an hour. I had 3 winners out of 4 races in that time. Conte made 1 huge bet on one of those races,he lost and I won. It was a top rated horse on whatever Sartin program I was using then. When I told him that I had bet 2 horses 60/40,he laughed and said NO ON WHO WINS EVER BET'S 2 HORSES IN 1 RACE! i tried to explain Doc's theory on it but" He stormed off and again to all who could hear BETTING 2 HORSES IS TOTALLY INSANE and these guys are from another planet!
