AQU
First race

Looks like a very competitive field. I think it will be a tightly packed bunch turning for home. I'm going to give it to the 6 who has won on four different tracks in the last ten races.

I know that the last three outs don't look like much, so I'll just make an action bet. Ramon is jumping off to take the likely favorite, but Rajiv will do in a pinch.

I might not either after tomorrow. I'm spending too much time and money on it and may just wait for the spring to start again.

Unless I just start playing the bottom horse when I reduce the field to 5, that seems to be the way it's going.

I was thinking of that if only to enjoy the turf races.

Hi Clore

Its really a good thing to do There might just be something
better for you out there If It hapens often enough for you
It could be your paceline and contender selection is not working at
AQU but doing the exact same thing at another track might move
those winners up to the top But then again low ranked horses
with good readouts in the "total" corallarys and VDC reaout
often pay well

Good Skill

The thing is that I've not changed my approach to picking pace lines. Yet if you listen to the talking heads on TV, even they keep saying that the track has not been playing as it used to. They refer to it as being "more fair" which just may be why I'm getting so many 4th and 5th ranked horses showing up in the winner's circle.

I console myself by saying that at least I'm getting them in the top 5. Maybe I just need to change my betting strategy, I'm getting a lot of my selections coming in second.

For the second at AQU, despite coming from the parking lot, I'm going with the 5 horse. There appears to be a fair amount of speed in here.

EDITED TO ADD:
What was I saying?
The winner of the second was my fifth ranked horse, my selection came in second. The pattern continues.
