Got the above from a friend at the track. Basically it means what works "here" might not work "over there."
Let me give 2 examples ok?
These results are from a pace oriented software program that is NEITHER Val Or Spec. This way maybe an objective and non -biased point might show itself to be a reality WITHOUT arrows finding their way to my head.
Setup:
same paceline criteria
100 Races
NO maiden races
NO turf races for 3 year olds only
NO hiding of any kind
Top 2 selections based on oddsline
Findings:
Churchill Downs- 100 Races
32 Wins in top 2
Avg. Win $ = $ 9.85
Tot bet= $ 400.00
Tot ret = $ 315.20
Loss = $ 84.80 appx -22% ROI
Findings:
Mountaineer- 100 Races
41 Wins in top 2
Avg. Win $ = $ 12.70
Tot bet = $ 400.00
Tot ret = $ 520.70
Profit = $ 120.70 appx + 30% ROI
Same MECHANICAL application. Totally different bottom lines.
On a smaller scale yesterday at the track I went 5 for 6 at Delaware ( destroyed it). same application I went 1 for 6 at Monmouth ( got crushed).
Summary:
If you are having trouble at a particular track (s) with WHATEVER your software of choice is consider looking " OVER THERE". That old saying about the grass being greener on the other side might just apply if you look "OVER THERE".
