81 Beyer for Mike Bruder's MDN-breaking Quick Wit.

Romans trainee flatters Pletcher cruiser Spring Hill Farm who beat him by 6.5L 2 wks ago.

Yep. IMO, the Beyer variant shouldn't have been split the day of the SHF and Quick Wit MSW race. A little too much human judgement perhaps.

Algorithms 98

Broadway's Alibi 100

El Padrino 100

The actual Saturday figs are 96 for Awesome Feather and 100 for Mucho Macho Man.

The Holy Bull was kinda ugly.

At least the Godolphin colt ran huge.

Yes, though they use variants differing by 7 points.

It's been kind of annoying how much that is happening without strong enough reason for it. Would you agree that the pace in the two Sunshine Million dirt routes was the reason -- not a change in the speed of the surface?

Yes.

The strangest split i ever came across beyer wise was the running of the '03 Smile and Carry Back stakes at Calder. Both winners Shake You Down and Valid Video both ran 1:10 03. and 1:10 15. respectively @ 45 minutes apart. Yet Shake You Down was given a 121 and Valid Video a 114 if my memory serves me well.

i need to not scan names so quickly...i thought the one horse was named buggerthyneighbor!

;) If that's your problem, should make reading this interesting: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=1&theater George Takei's FB page. Always entertaining.

i just scanned them quickly and thought, was that horse named buggerthyneighbor?? lol

i don't do facebook tho, but i might have to check it out if it's funny.


yeah, it got me too. on both.

Do you have the Beyer for Comisky's Honor, who broke Posse's 5f track record in Sunday's 4th race at Fair Grounds? Thanks.

96...quite a number for a 10k maiden claimer.

Wow. For the sake of comparison, Comisky's Honor had a run-up of 50 feet in his race. Posse had no run-up. Thanks.

It's Humor, not Honor.

Just an FYI.

What kind of form did this horse have? That's pretty crazy shid.

From Dan Illman of DRF:

What do you make of COMISKY'S HUMOR's 96 Beyer effort in a $10,000 maiden claimer going five furlongs at Fair Grounds on January 29? Trained by Ron Faucheux, 3-year-old Comisky's Humor was beaten 10 3/4 lengths, with a 27 Beyer, in his career debut for $15,000 on January 6. Second-out, he romped by 14 lengths in gate-to-wire fashion. Comisky's Humor, a $14,000 RNA as a short yearling, sold for only $1,200 as a Keeneland yearling. By Sharp Humor out of the solid New York sprinter/router Lexiloush, Comisky's Humor's winning race was faster, on the Beyer scale, than the San Pedro Stakes (Midnight Transfer), Smarty Jones Stakes (Junebugred) and Gulfstream Park Derby (Reveron) earlier in the year. His Beyer was seven points quicker than what Hansen earned (89) when the juvenile champion of 2011 made his sophomore debut last week in the Holy Bull.

This guy has been killing the world.

I figured it would be something either like that, or that this horse is out of a French Deputy mare.

Any handicapper relying on Beyers in the year 2012 is at least ten years behind the times. I'll gladly keep taking your money with these juicy overlays. You just keep following Andy.

Troll alert!!!!!

A combo of both in this instance ...



The trainer is winning 42% with sprinters ... that'll make any $1,200 yearling out of a French Deputy mare look good.

I only wish I knew a little F'n French so I could properly pronounce this wizard trainers name...

BTW would nail this name. He even watches French movies.

Glad to see we finally have a real handicapper around these parts.

Thank you Calzone..as for the red sox fan (you have my sympathies)..No troll pal. I just know more than you. I have made it my business to know more than you. I am very successful in my business. 40 years and still well into the black. Listen and learn now that i'm here.

I knew today was going to be a special day. Now it's confirmed.

I just hope the IP police can confirm this is a new one and not the same guy who taught Bobby Frankel how to train horses coming back under a different name.

Either way, Nick is right, this is a great day.

It's also a jockey upgrade, Eramia vs J. Bridgmohan.

Of course its a great day. For you. The QD will gladly share his knowledge and help bring you into the 21st century with his Quantum Handicapping. Of course I expect people will do what they do whenever a new boss arrives. The difference here is i'm not going to be your boss. I am not going to twist any arms. The QD is THE best and has been for better than 30 years.
You can listen and learn or you can keep giving me all these juicy overlays. The choice will be up to each individual handicapper. So hit the report button all you want. It won't rid me because I won't break any rules. I am just here to help.

Any Questions?
Class Dismissd!:mad:

You've piqued my interest. What is Quantum Handicapping?

This isn't Dixie... Dixie would have walked in like he owned the place.

He'd have an avatar (Coaltown, Affectionately, Hoist the Flag, Hail to Reason or the Beverly Hills Hotel), have filled out his profile and would have started his own thread thank you very much.

He wouldn't tell you how much he knows right off the bat... he'd call you (as in you in general, not you in particular) a moron and let you know how little you know first.

Dixie, whoever that was couldn't carry the QD's racing form. Nobody can. Quantum Handicapping is the result of 40 years of research and development by the countrys foremost handicapper, myself. I have written a book which will be available shortly. It would take me years to teach you all Quantums but I suggest you follow what I say with keen interest. I will not be shy in letting you all SEE how a Quantum Handicapper thinks. I will also bring in the cornerstones of what makes Quantums as we go along. Be patient and don't be afraid to ask questions. Publicly or privately.

Very well. Just one question for now. Does the Quantum Handicapper like anything for today?

The QD does not LIKE anything. The QD plays who is the most likely winner with the most value. He is also NOT a performer and will NOT regularly post picks. This would upset the delicate balance of Quantums which states "listen to nobody, look at nothing, and say nothing". Of course as we go along I will offer picks as they relate to certain topics being discussed concerning Quantums.

Anyone else have the feeling that QD is gonna fizzle out faster than Bind?

Okay, how about a brief explanation about what a quantum is? As an aside, I loved the show Quantum Leap. One of the more underrated shows of all time IMO.

If I'm asking too much, I apologize. I'm just eager to learn and I sense something special with you. You seem WAY smarter than most of the people that post here.

Riveting.

Maybe there are a few horses today who are morning line favorites and look vulnerable on Quantums?

I am not smarter. Just more dedicated to what I do. TOTALY dedicated. I have been doing it since I was a child. I was THE boy wonder who kept getting better and better. To give you a taste of what Quantums is all about, I will give you a general formula with the 5 considerations.

Speed / Resistance / Fuel / Trip / Cycle

Calzone, of course there are. Thats how the QD makes his living. Stay tuned and learn how he thinks.
