Good suggestion though . . . some have already started, like Mr Eager Beaver Cal, and have the whole card done.
Actually, what I said was misleading. I said I was through handicapping which meant I was done with all I was going to do. In reality, I really did fairly in depth handicapping with notes and all for about 8 of the 15 races. The rest I will just briefly scan for a few minutes. For a normal card, usually don't do in depth more than 3 or 4 races so I guess you could say I overdo it on the races I'm interested in playing and probably don't do enough for the rest, but big races like the Triple Crown and Breeder's Cup can really give a person information overload after you do your handicapping and listen to all the buzz. I used to read just about everything I could, but these days, I try to keep my own counsel as dangerous as that is.
