Just some thoughts.... - Pace and Cap

Placed 20 bets today. Hit 8.

Pick 3 x 1
wp x 3
win x 2
wps x2

Made some bets that I shouldn't have, but fine tuning.

Bet Gulfstream and Pimlico. To be honest, don't really like betting either one compared to Woodbine (one of my favorites) and some others. But, handicapping is handicapping.

Lost 46% of my stake. But some good lessons learned, and trying new things.

biggest losers were a DD (hit half of it) and loading up on a wps, but I know my mistake there...

Have a great weekend.

One must have a consistent approach to wagering. Keep your bets small and consistent until you acquire a better knowledge of the readouts and tools within RDSS. Show bets are really a waste of capital as the risk and reward just isn't there. For a DD the degree of difficulty of the race before and after must be taken into consideration, sometimes its best to just place a win bet.

Best of luck going forward,
