Poll Question - Pace and Cap

dugoutgold · 07-04-2006, 03:14 AM

hey Shoe, ive changed how i look at readouts etc over the years here. These days I look for the top 5 lowest odds horses and take it from there. Yes i miss a huge payoff once in a while but I just care about steady profit. Boreing but I have somewhat of a traders background here and use the old addage, keep your losses low! Meaning this I after getting the lowest 5/6 contenders then ill use my readouts. Also with the 2 horse dutch I often spilt the bets 60/40 if the lowodds horse looks that good and my second pick is around 4 to 1 or better. As you might guess i pass alot of races these days as I want the risk/reward ratio to be worth the bet. Also i do do keep simple models, On Val its the V/DC screen to look at trends. On spec which even though i tested many versions for Guy I was never constant I looked for the mug. per1 and 2 and the BBL.
