But first, in post number 29 this thread you state "he handicapped brilliantly" Then in #54 you refute that opinion. You cannot have it both ways. If my tone was condescending towards the winner... in retrospect the sequence did not seem that difficult.

I prefer being labeled a handicapper rather than a horseplayer. I would 'cap if there was no betting. Since I post, what I play, your assumption that I mislead players is inaccurate. I have no interest in being a public handicapper.

I write awful and type worse, but do try to include pieces of 'cappin wisdom in my posts. The use of the term "outcross favorite" above is a good example. They are among the BEST bets in racing, can be found once a day or so at major tracks and outperform all favorites by almost five percent!!! As for my agenda; pass, although it should be clear. Reading Clavell's classic "King Rat" may give you a clue.

Not into that avatar stuff, send it to 'Stud he is a big fan. Thanks though.

I did not look at any pp's but when a horse is favored and blows away his field
they probably figured off the paper. If thats redboarding sorry. If you think its gobblygook, your in error, again.

LOVE CODE is the reason I responded again. I guess you agree that she is very sharp, has improved going green, is in good hands and figured a nice trip. You are correct she goes from statebred to open, but also drops from nonwinners two to nonwinners one.

At what level (going from NY's to open) is she NOT dropping in class?? 3X to one X ? 4X to One X? $aw to one x Stake to one X Thanks in advance. BBB

The answer: almost NEVER. The rare exception being a NYB stake to open N1X is usually a drop, but not always.
