Now we look at the Segments screen. Do we choose as our key horse the 10, 7 or the 3. Looking at it now, I probably made a mistake here. The 7 clearly has the best TS+F3 in a late race. I chose the 3 for other reasons, but the 7 did present itself as a better choice in retrospect.
One final screen the New Pace screen. Remember, we use this as a look at the horses overall ability over his total past performances, not just one line. Here we note again the 21 Early Speed points so we line up on low/pressured. That gives us the top two as the 7 and the 3. You can see here another case for making the 7 the key as Tim did. Our 6 horse doesn’t look so good until we remember that he is one of two horses with complete 4-scores and is in our top 5 RX3. My bet was a Key Exacta box with the 3 keyed with the 1,6,7, 10 and a trifecta key box 3 keyed with the 1,6,7,10. As you can see even though I lost the exacta, the $1 Trifecta paid 348.70.
Earlier I mentioned how I did on three other races. I used the same strategy on all the races, and you can see that favorites came in and I kissed my sister. But one hit out of 4 can yield great results.
Thanks for reading through all this. I hope it helps.
