Doug.. (and ranger),
Great try. It was a fascinating endeavor and fun to watch. And ranger -- tabbing the dollar loss was an amazing sidebar. What can be gleaned from the exercise with 479 out of 480 hopeless looking horses losing? There must be common denominators... a tick list that eliminates longshots with no chance whatsoever from those with a shot...
