No, I do not use EXACTLY “best of last 3 distance/surface”. I guess the first thing I should tell you is, all my lines are computer generated. Naturally, since I wrote the program, it generates lines base on what I told the program to look for and what not to look for and, to me, CONSISTENCY is the key. The lines are ALWAYS generated the same EXACT way! Let me put it this way, here is what I DON’T do.
I don’t mix turf with dirt/poly
I don’t mix dirt/poly with turf
I don’t mix sprint with route
I don’t mix route with sprint
I don’t scan the speed ratings and take the horses lifetime best and use that line
I don’t use lines over 90 days old
I don’t use lines if the horse showed no “sign of life”.( i.e.- NOT 1st or 2nd at the first or second call or NOT in the money finish) I don’t want to use a line where the horse was out for exercise or was not competitive at some point in the race.
Having said all that and taking all that into consideration, what I use is the MOST RECENT line where the horse DID SHOW “signs of life” at the distance/surface it is running at today. It doesn’t necessarily have to be the horses’ BEST race.
So am I close to “best of last 3 distance/surface”? Sort of.
