make each jockey submit themselves to some sort of high tech brain scan. the purpose of this will be to determine the actual weight of each jockey's brain.

then, when assigning weight handicaps, make it publicly known the actual weight of each jocks brain.

so, for instance, in a 6 horse handicap, the high weighted horse will have to spot the low weighted horse anywhere from 1-3 ounces.

i think this is a much more useful gauge than anything currently used!

In my 20 plus years of watching gamblers and "watchers" of races it has become quite clear that Jeff Mullins hit the nail on the head!

i'm going to assume that you being an ex jockey might make you sensitive to my remarks about jockies, but there was no insult intended towards you. besides, i think that you almost have to be an idiot to make it as a jockey, based on alot of first hand observation.

that all being said, could you do no better than quoting jeff mullins, of all people, when you tried to denigrate us 'gamblers/watchers'?

i mean, after all, you're basically paying us a complement.
