White's appointment is effective with Oak Tree's opening on Sept. 30.

There goes the morning line. Might as well pick numbers out of a hat.
You couldn't be more incorrect. There isn't a more qualified or dedicated candidate for the job than Jon White.

This establishes that you don't understand what the ML is, how it is established, what it reflects or why Jon White can make the line accurately AND write the Sanita Anita program handicapping notes.
