Practice Race Keeneland Race 8 - Pace and Cap

Well this has turned into a very interesting thread. Nice to see people sharing ideas on how they do things. When I joined in 1990 it was more or less sink or swim. Sure you could call the Doc or Jimmy or Glenn Connelly but time was limited. I used almost every program available and like some have alluded to it always drove me nuts as to which adjustment to use. Anyway I'm not a matchup guy per se[I check ntl horses etc]. After I watched the Docs' 1on 1 videos where he stated he know longer attempted to project the pace of race or visual perception but rather was using the computer compounded ratings I've gone with that. Basically I agree that there are several ways to skin the cat. I've been friends with Mitch since we met at the 90 Sar seminar and we grew into the methodology together. We were also lucky to close some of the hotel bars with Doc,Jimmy and others so we picked up some tidbits. Point is I hope this thread continues and thank those who have posted so far.
