Default sure-fire handicapping method

After observing Maria Pascual today, right before she won the first of two races on the Delaware card, and after discussing these observations with Saucon17, I think this is fertile ground for developing a new handicapping technique. Book deal is in the works.


working title: The Body Language of Winning Horse Trainers

trainer stokes up victory cigar while the horse is being saddled, using a hundred dollar bill as a match;

trainer gets on phone to spouse and okays purchase of Florida timeshare as soon as gate opens;

trainer pays for something by check right before race and says, "Just wait to cash it until the next, oh, two minutes or so;"

trainer pays jockey just before the race and says, "Let's take care of this now...I'm going to take the rest of the month off;"

trainer shows up at track in the morning in a rented stretch limo...


Would appreciate any other suggestions.

Trainer observed heading to paddock before the race with a left over fireworks rocket and a jar of vasoline!
