Not the same procedure, but it is the Match Up Tom Brohamer style.

Quote:
1) Analyse the early part of the race. Evaluate the chances of the horse involved in that part of the scenario then disqualify runners who do not measure up.

2) Evaluate the Pressers in the race.Most often, a weak early pace picture strongly favours this type. They have first run at the leaders and must be given strong consideration.

3) Consider the closers in the race. In most races these are the least probable winners. Avoid closers that unable to reach a striking position by the stretch call. They are proven losers at every track in the country and only win with a complete collapse of the pace.

The former is simple. Unfortunately, most players have little organisation in the approach and often proceed too quickly to betting decisions. This procedure will give each type of runner it's proper due. It will also ensure an adequate understanding of the pace picture for the races you are about to bet.
Excerpt from Modern Pace Handicapping by Tom Brohamer which can be found at good book stores.

Learn to see and you too will be picking horses and not pacelines.
