As for the original question, what's wrong with having to watch the race over again....even a few times?

come on..it's early out there..
or late, depending on how your night went I guess

True, but the " why bother watching replays because some juiced horse will beat you anyway " is pretty tough to beat....at least in a supposed serious conversation.

Of course, when you factor in that SCUDS believes that people see the same stuff I guess a new wrinkle is thrown in. I can pretty much guarantee you that the Fat Man sees things differently, and very intelligently, than most see races. I know I see trips very differently than most. I also know that the more you watch replays carefully the more you will understand what's important and what isn't.

To me, most of it is race shape and how certain events affect different horses' chances in the race.
