STILL A GREAT DEAL… My Del Mar Special is offered every year, just for Del Mar. The approximate cost of each Power Page at only $2.65 if you act now! When you purchase the special, the Del mar Power Pages are AUTOMATICALLY e-mailed to you the night-before, usually before 8PM. Here is an interesting statistic —
Top Rated horses have finished (1st or 2nd) 154 out of 295 times — from June 25th through July 18th. Every race with least 1 rated starter was counted at both Belmont and Hollywood Park during this period. This means that the TOP-RATED horses emulate the frequency of being a favorite without always having the negative of being the favorite — the short price.
Beyond that, remember, you can adjust my PPN’s on the Power Pages according to your own handicapping, since I don’t include important fundemental handicapping factors such as post position, workouts, trainer patterns, jockey moves, claiming, 1st gelding and anything else you can think of that isn’t in a speed figure. Just taking this set of horses and improving the set with your own handicapping should make you a winner, if we can keep the frequency rate up…Let’s follow it together, through Del mar and Saratoga…
Naturally, at the beginning of the meeting, with the most recent races occurring at other tracks, we might expect the top-rated horses to be slightly less frequent. We can learn together, so far at Del Mar the TR is 18 (1st or 2nds) out of 55 races, through Saturday 7/24/10 — including all the turf to dirt races at Saratoga. I will continue to follow these and include Saratoga to the mix…STAR horses are PLUS EQUITY! Update on Sunday 8/1/10
Resulting Friday’s Free Play…Dream Now loomed large but couldn’t push into 2nd or 1st, a bit surprising for this well priced Canani runner. On to the next..
Saturday’s Free Play … Pick 3 that starts in race #8…As alluded to on the Race Day Show, my STAR horse in Race #8 is my 1st key, my 2nd Key si Dakota Phone. Betting both of them to win might be problematical, but with the wide-open 9th race, just begging for a shot gun approach and the strenght in our top 3 horses in the 10th race, this begs to be a PICK-3. I am not giving out the name of the STAR horse in the 8th, you have to pick up the Power Page or the KHSS for $2.00 (the Power Page STAR horse in the 8th is the TOP-Rated horse on the KHSS). So here is the play, 2 x 7 x 3 = 42 combinations… Interestingly, we have a natural exacta box in the first leg and an exacta box in the last leg. So we might actually have 3 plays. If the Pick 3 goes down before the last race, then you would play the exacta box. If the Pick-3 is alive, then you just have nothing to do except, hopefully cash the ticket. The open exacta box, might pay for the whole thing! In Race #8 we will use Dakata Phone with my STAR horse, in the 9th race we will use the following Gold Stock,Cole’s Favorite, Halo’s Law,Areutrue, Intothewild,Elusive Moment and Lake Meza — then in the 10th race, use Real Obvious, Beach Bootom Bay and Nosegay. If the Pick 3 is too rich for your tastes, then you have two strong exacta play in the 8th and the 10th …Good luck
