How far back?? - Pace and Cap

I only look at the last 4 races per horse. One of these lines will either have the winner in it or you won't get it anyways.If you feel that the top 4 races don't represent the horse how do you choose between lines 5 thru 10???.Most likely doing this will only result in error and won't boost your bottom line anyways. If you do feel the need to go back further atleast first ask yourself WHY? and then ONLY if you can find a GOOD reason to go back further then proceed.Don't do it just becouse.

The more variables you can eliminate the easier it becomes to being a profitable player.Years ago I felt the NEED to have a complicated method to beat the game, becouse I was more interested in being seen as some rocket science impressing my friends with scientific mumbo jumbo, the only problem was that I always lost money. After I chucked it all and found a keep it extremely simple approach I made money and lots of it.

Good luck.

Mike.
