Now see difference between Val4&Spec160 - Pace and Cap

Well I am now back to earth. I won only 2 of 14 at Del Mar(5 Races) and Saratoga. At Sar yesterday I had to leave for awhile and bet two races that came off the grass-my stupid! The rest of the races seemed to run early. The races at Del Mar ran early. One of the reasons I had such a good ROI for 41 races was a number of horses came from off the lead and paid very nice prices.

Well after losing so many early races I decided to look at spec160 on the same races. It had the winning horse on top of the last frame of Segments 5 times. while it was not in top two with Val 4.

So, now what do I do? My plan is to pay more attention to Spec when the race is on dirt and 8f or less. On turf and longer dirt races I will pay more attention to Val 4.

I decide to go back and run my winners over $10( 7 with largest $38.40) using spec 160. IT got all those winners although 5 of them were on turf or on dirt over 8.5 F. Spec also seems to make finding a wire-to-wire horse easier to see. I also went back and checked on two large exactas I got derby day( $454 and $235) and spec would have allowed me to get those.
My plan is now to switch to Spec 160!!!!

nice going CC...

Just dont get caught in the switches...perfect one mode and stick with it...or you'll be pulling your hair out later. i believe playing the big boy's tracks of Del and Sar is really tough , trying lower tracks , like Mth and Philly on the east coast, where racing is more consistent over a few months .

good capping
