When I handicap the mud, I generally limit my betting and try to look for longer prices. Nothing is worse than betting a grip load of money on a horse that looks much the best on paper and then watch him not handle the slop a lick.
I generally look at pedigree.. my personal favorite wet sires are Flying Paster and Seattle Slew.. Those aren't necessarily the best, but I've had a lot of success with some good prices that had those horses in their bloodline.. especially on the bottom side.
