I can't think of many things I can say I NEVER do and I rarely give much advice to others. I can say though that it has been a long time since I used an xtracted paceline..

Projection, on the other hand, comes up a bit more frequently. I work the Louisiana circuit a lot. Cheap horses but full fields with few late scratches. The problem of young horses stretching out with little or no route experience behind them comes up fairly frequently.

I know you say there are many races out there and we should just move on, but I don't handicap very many cards. My needs are for only $500+ a month in supplemental income and I don't like to work too hard to get there. I find that a limited subset of cheap tracks presents me with ample opportunities for wagercapping and the rewards are more than worth the risks.

I guess there are many different roads for us to take, depending upon our needs and temperament.
