Thanks for all of the replies. I guess the take away for me is that work out times should be taken with a grain of salt, and not gospel. I will focus more on the work out pattern instead of the speed of the workouts. This should be helpful as more 3 YO make their debuts and the start of the 2 YO arrived later in the year.
I guess the fact that this happend in the third leg of the pick 4 is what really upset me. I guess I should have capitalized on the exacta and tri in the race itself. Oh well chalk it up to a valuable lesson learned.
With respect to Andy not giving out his picks here that is his choice. I know I have profited from his "gracious" comments and the back and forth we have had on some of the picks I have posted on this forum.
I guess my point is that I would rather of have done the handicapping myself and made some adjustments based on some of his or Steve's insights. That is afterall how I am going to learn and get better at this game. Not by betting someone elses picks blindly, not that I haven't done that. I think the learning process is what has drawn me in and kept me on this forum.
Hopefully some day I will be able to hadnicap half as well as either Steve and Andy do today.
