Mug,
I'd make that decision based on where there are jocks/trainers/horses who you already have determnined are your 'favorites' as a fan... If you like Johnny V, Prado, etc., Shug McGaughey and Barclay Tagg, you follow NYRA-Gulfstream... If you like Baffert and Garrett Gomez say, you follow California.. Along those lines. If you have a small base of fan interest already, you'll know right away "where" you want to focus your attention as a fledgling bettor...
