Thanks Darryl! Appreciate the feedback.

You're absolutely right about the maiden and 2YO races, especially first-time starters. I know better than to make those betting races with RDSS. The Sartin guidelines about avoiding horses doing something for the first time are pretty clear. LOL!

I agree about the chalk, too. Finding 7 of 9 winners in the top three looks good on paper, but that doesn't necessarily translate into profitable wagering. That's where I need to be more selective and concentrate on value.

R9 is still worth another look, but as you said, sometimes a horse just outruns its numbers. I don't want to start chasing every longshot after the fact.

I'm going to keep tracking the results, especially the horses that move into contention through the additional RDSS factors and paceline review. R5 and R7 were encouraging examples.

Thanks again for the advice Darryl. Always learning!
