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 handicap half as well as either Steve and Andy do today.

I couldn't have said this any better myself. This is PRECISELY why I'm on this board as well. The bantering back and forth amongst members of this forum is priceless, and the knowledge one can learn just by reading is unbelievable.
