Good luck!
Steve

I didn't know that Steve was giving out a selection tonight, I have been playing his pick 4+5 s and not much luck for a long time now, and it looks like I am going to miss out on a winning tickets, can't catch a break,

Nice hit Steve

So "a long time now" is about 3 months because I'm also 'playing my picks without much luck' and know what a struggle it's been in the big multis. I've been doing this publicly for 20 years now and it's not the first time I've had cold streaks on the P-X's, though I'll say that there was more stunning bad luck at Saratoga then I've ever encountered.

Now, with that said, while the big multis haven't fallen, my individual race handicapping has been the exact same as it's always been and there's positive results to be had there. As I explain on the radio, when it's not going great in the big multis, pair back and play P3's/DD's and increase the likelihood of success or bet price key horses to win and up/down in exactas/tris, etc.

Yesterday at Remington a good example with Fly to the Bank in the Sprint. I thought 5-1 was great value as a top pick and then he went off at 8-1 and ran huge.

I don't know what else to tell you. You've been here a long time and I know you've played along with my opinions a long time. You have to know that I can get streaky hot, so if I get cold, lay off until the pendulum swings back in the good direction.
