    I had a terrible spring + summer meet at Belmont and Saratoga. Taking a break for now... Might attend the Jockey Club Gold in a couple weeks...

    After Saratoga, I usually cut back until October. Handicapping the horses is so draining, plus the ups and downs of losing, winning, bad rides, bad beats.

    I'm just spot playing. One or two bets a week. My plate is full at the moment and the horses can be very time consuming. Once Santa Anita starts I will pay more attention.

    A wise person told me that playing the ponies year round can and will drain one's roll. Follow it year round, but only wager during certain times of the year.

    My betting goes down like 80% once the meadowlands harness season is over. I am just cherry picking winners now mainly at mohawk. Still waiting for treasure keeper to run but he cannot stay flat in a qualifier to save his life much less a race.

    Handicapping horses is pointless 90% of the time industry is far to corrupt to "pick a winner" I play the ponies like crazy at the track 3-5 nights a week and I used to try and "capp" horses and talk to old timers to get winners and lost my ass every time until the past 11 months, I have been betting horses since I was 16 I am now 22, for those 5 years from 16-21 I lost probably 40k, this past 11 months I have tried a new strategy and it has worked brilliantly for me I bet number combinations, if you get to know each track you will notice patters as far as what numbers seem to run together, whether the inside or out side horses get better trips, if it seems the jockeys/riders there usually hold the horses to close or whoever gets the top usually goes wire to wire, by knowing each tracks tendency and a little luck, and by putting down the program I am up over 10k since last oct, before last Oct I had never had a signer in my life this year I have accumulated over 12 and its only September, PUT DOWN THE PROGRAM! PLAY SHOTS! KNOW THE TRACKS!

    I dislike HK and Aussie races because their PP's are so ****ed to look at.

    It is hard to find a horse to like.

    topgame, I enjoy handicapping a race and coming up with a winner, but I agree with you, most times it is just bullshit.
