Default New handicapping angle

Never ceases to amaze me the wonderful tidbits I continue to pick up at the OTB. My Jamaican friend informed me last night that you can always tell what horse is going to win based on which groom is dressed the nicest, meaning he knows that he is gonna have his picture taken. As if this game isn't hard enough already, now I have to take the grooms apparel into account.

Which begs the question, which is the stronger angle?

First off Polyester or the 2 Lima Cottons to Silk?

Well which Raiders jersey is considered the nicer one, the home (black) or the road (white)?
