So, you've had a real constant bias in play.. and it wasn't until the very end of 3rd week that the riders started to pick up on it and ride more aggressively.
That's been a bigtime help.

I have no doubt you are a better handicapper than them. You actually take time in your selections instead of automatically deferring to the ML favorite. Analyzing biases and trends are a significant part of handicapping, regardless of whether that's been beneficial to your ROI in the current short run. My point was more that your opinion has to be even more right because of the size of the pools- a $1000 bet actually changes the odds at PID.
Did you see the 1st race today that I was referring to?
