Hi Richard,

I do some of these already, and they seem to be good. Number 5 is not something I have considered in the past, and it seems really clever, and I will look at how it works with my handicapping going forward. My first impression is that it will pay off handsomely when my 3rd or 4th selection comes in. Since I seldom bet races with fewer than 7 or 8 horses, that works with your 50% idea. I have noticed that if I get more than 5 contenders, it is best to pass the race.

Appreciate the ideas, really looking forward to putting #5 into my arsenal.

Dan
