4/8/20, Tam Race 6 - Pace and Cap

wallyHeitz · 04-08-2020, 09:44 AM

16 K Clmg, 5 contenders.
After tossing non cons, I checked Bris Prime Power and my contenders were within the top 5.
I reluctantly let the 8 horse be one of my contenders. Lousy pace numbers except for the final number which was very good. It is a Sustained horse so in it stays.
Top two choices are the 1 and 5, both with desirable odds of 3/1.
Next two choices the 2 and 8 are tied and required odds are 7/2.
Last choice is the 6 horse and required odds are 5/1.
I manually enter. I made a little BASIC program which does the arithmetic. So 'handicapping' is a bit tedious and very time consuming.

Good luck Wally! Just a friendly reminder - when members post in the Selections Forum, they are expected to post some kind of follow up to show how they did. Your choice of how you show that. You could simply list the races you bet and what the results were, or do a more itemized description like how Lt1 or rdiam do it.

Thanks!

Ted

I lost the race. #4 won @ 3/1 odds. I tossed it because it's figures weren't very good, but it was a class dropper. One of my top 2 choices placed @ $4.40.
