So now we know all about the Value Add-In horse — notated by the “V” …
As we go into the New Year, we shouldn’t forget the basics of the Power Page… So allow please take a moment to review…
1) We always want to bet horses we consider OVERLAYS…. This is the only absolute rule… So get a good understanding of an OVERLAY. It can be a $4.00 horse that will win 75% of the time — as well as a 20/1 Long shot that can win 8% of the time…
2) Learn the plays you are good at identifying and always be them when they arrive – if they are overlays… This way you won’t Zig and Zag!
3) The PPN on the Power Page is just a deep evaluation of current form, based upon using Speed figure (my speed figs))… There are many other factors to include before you have a final selection.
4) Seldom should you have only 1 horse as your prime contender. Great handicapper’s always have MANY HORSES in their Prime Contender group and then they make their final choice on an argument between selection and value… Selection is the horse you are most comfortable betting on FREQUENCY and Value is the horse that – is just deservedly a part of the discussion… I have learned that the value horses usually has many good attributes I didn’t seen initially, but they appeared the more I struggled with the handicapping problem…
5) Handicapping is NOT easy, that ‘s what makes it great…
