To me that says that you don't follow the sport very closely....which is fine.

Now if you want to call certain people out on this board, fine. I don't have a problem with that. But you should probably go ahead and call them out rather than just making vague claims against large groups of people that you only identify with terms like "everybody." I don't have anything against you personally man, but this stuff you've been posting the last couple of days seems to be - in my opinion - a bit over the top.
Im not taking anyone's "side" here. I am just verifying that i have seen this guy post a couple of winners.

As far as knowing or not knowing who barbaro was before the derby, what does that have to do with his ability to handicap? Do you have to follow racing at the highest levels to be able to handicap a monday card at delaware park?

There are guys I see at the track regularly that dont have a clue that Curlin was pointing toward the arc but knew everything that was going on at the particular track that they were betting...and they win often.
