    bad mistake..not sure what I was thinking..best speed posted outside in a small field so easy to clear..have a hunch leaving undrafted out 5th leg probably a mistake also..if I had actually played this probably be pissed at my decisions in this sequence

    OK. Your call. But I think you would garner more cred here at SBR if you lowered your volume of picks, and instead at times(Especially for ML Shots) gave more of a detailed explanation so people know where you are coming from. I know you hit some shots from time to time, but I usually do not play them because I do not see your angle or I am not playing that track.


    just wanted to bring this back to my thread..it's not only the time but deciding where to draw the line between ok plays,good plays,really good plays and great plays not an easy thing to do.lots of grey areas to deal with and that makes this not fun for me. .If I really draw a blank I'll pass but usually can find something I like in a race..Once in a while I'll do a short write up but overall
    don't want the hassle with the volume of stuff I put up..I'll keep it in consideration to do it a little more though..appreciate the feedback

    I can see your point. It's tough to decipher at times which are your strongest plays. Tough game. I understand capping is more of a hobby for you as you usually only play on big race days. However, you are posting a large amount of recommendations for the world to see. I assume you think players should follow at times, and I would be one of those followers if you made a strong case for a horse. In other words sell the steak and not the sizzle.

    I check your thread out on a regular basis to see how your plays do. And sometimes I give you props when you hit a nice shot. However, I would really prefer to be on your side in some contests if you make a strong case and point out things about a horse that I do not see. Think it over JBEX. Not that you should give details on every recommendation, but some of the long shots would be ideal. I feel it would add great value to your thread. GL Moving forward.

    you know I post more than just on big race days. .I'm here easily an average of 4-5 days a week ..I'll consider throwing some short writeups in every now and then when I feel there's lots of significant stuff going on..best I can do

    I wrote play not post. If I remember correctly you said you do not put $$ through the windows except on big race days. Fair enough. Look forward to your plays.

    apologize.. misunderstood you..yes only big race days and occasionally carve up a reasonable p6 with a few buds on a big carryover day

    Hey JBEX: How about a Saratoga/Del Mar contest between you and I? Max 100 Plays. Mythical $2 WPS. Derby War Caps of $32/$18/$10. I will do all the tracking. I am busted on points and kind of cold lately with contests so looking for a way to get some free action. You are not a Pro so we can not transfer over points so just for the hell of it. Let me know and I will start a thread.

    just gonna stick to what I do..often find the fringe plays I put in are the ones that yield nice results over time rather than the best bets (2 units for me) .. rather not have a format where I have to find 2-3 top plays a day
