and, I might add, a basic familiarity with the economics of the sport...but, really once you've got a handle on that, claiming races can be great wagers. And, if anyone is going to play, he better damn well learn to play claimers because that's by far the majority of races available to bet on...unless someone does like you do PG and play only turf races, which I've found to be the most volatile of any surface to play on.
