Ote - Pace and Cap

justin13892002 · 08-13-2014, 06:35 AM

Can somebody post up some examples or information on OTE races. I am consistent with Early races, and can usually tell when the race will go OTE, but can't seem to narrow down the OTE horses to find selections.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

Bradshaw and Brohamer both say pay attention to the stretch call.
Look at the final time, Look at the pace you project
Now look at your OTE contenders and find the fastest horse
and see its position in the stretch. Your best OTE should be right there
at the stretch. Make sure your "best" OTE horse is not just passing fading horses

If you pay much attention to final time you will end up on caulk. It may be a great handicapping factor but it is overbet.

Read the Hat Check Blog! Bradshaw learned to handicap from the racing form, no computer, speed figures besides the DRF DTV. This blog is priceless as we are lead by Richie P as he is personally instructed by "THE HAT".

Assign Running Styles, Project the pace, variegate the race and match up the horses based on the pacelines selected. You will uncover more longer priced horses than you ever thought possible. And more importantly, you can win money betting the horses!!!

The bad news is that it has taken me 18 months of study and work to get the proficiency I currently have and I still have some of the more advanced stuff to go!

I've been at this for over 40 years and much of it had to be "unlearned" to achieve success.

Jim Bradshaw stated it simply and I paraphrase,"In a horse race, one horse gets the lead and all the others try to catch him".
