There are people on here who are much better handicappers than I am, so maybe they feel confident comparing the quality of races & horses from 6 different continents, but I know I don't. One of the biggest aspects of handicapping is about figuring out which horses to toss. How can I do that when I don't know a thing about a horse's trainer or level of past competition? I can read the level they competed at in Australia and/or Narnia or wherever these horses competed at in the pp, but it doesn't really mean much to me.
I'd rather play Hawthorne's card.

Handicapping is about figuring out what horses to toss no matter where the horse raced. With the internet, hadicapping races with horses from all over the world has become easy. All you have to do is put a little effort into each race than normal.
