As I stated before if you have the patience to learn one track and know the trainers, jocks and horses... You can pull some good winners out. Mark put me on one in the 9th race a while back that made so much sense after he pointed it out. Its good to have people that have the discipline not to go wild and know the subtleties of a track. Good job. The Mountain is so diff. from my home track I completely have to change my ways of looking at races.
Maybe if Retama gets on your TVG/phone list I can pop you on to a few and anyone else who wants to play some really awful horses at a 3rd rate track. It's still the same currency. BTW Mark, Pish and Asmussen will bring horses to Retama, Asmussen under his assistants name. Pish will have 60 horses and Roman Chapa is back so I am going to wait a bit and see how things start settling out before I start throwing around more cash. Inevitably if Pish uses Chapa and they get on a roll it creates great opportunity. People just bet on the names and not the horses. Could be good.
