One thing I forgot to mention about the race above, (GP 3, 3/15).
So in general some days, it seems what this game is about, is validating (or not) what the prevailing opinion is, about the runners in a certain race, (or some days it feels like that). This race was an exception to that. The winner here was 4 in the ML, 3 in the final odds. The winner was not in the top 5 Bris Prime Power selections, nor was it in the Profit Line top 5 selections. The winner was, however 1 in BL in RDSS, 2 in Rx1, 1 in the remaining Rx rankings. More importantly for me, it was 1 in my CSR, one in VDC, 1 in my Contender calculation, and 1 in a number of other numbers I've developed. So if I look at other's public opinions (which I do), in the end, one's own proven handicapping is what has to take preference, even if it doesn't agree with the public numbers.
