BobP:
When my handicapping is on and I am not just trying to squeeze out a bet while at the track, you know make something happen or pick something, I count on my performance/trainer angles to make me feel today is the day for this horse. This is especially so if you are going back more then 3-4 races for your preferred pace line. Ray Taulbot would go back as far as needed to get his representative pace line which was according to him the best finish/time against the fastest half mile time in the past performances. Ray was an expert at determining a horse’s recent form and therefore this method of pace line selection was good for him. In his booklet that came with his pace calculator (which I still have) he had at least 15 or more form/trainer angles which were to be applied to only the top five contenders.
