I feel safe in saying I was one of the first that purchased a hat.

In all seriousness....I would never pay anyone for their picks. I have played very few picks that have been given to me by anyone. I will take what others say into consideration and If I happend to agree with what they say after looking at my information, then I will make a bet. If I don't agree with what they say, I don't bet it, plain and simple.

That being said...I NEVER EVER bet a horse someone tells me to without my own study of the horse. The ONLY person I want to be responsible IF I lose money on a race, IS ME.

Hooves has given me some great horse that paid TONS over the past few months, but after I looked at the forms and PP's, I didn't agree with what he saw, so I didn't bet them. I have missed out on some very nice priced winners, but it's the chance we all take.

Again, 98% of the bets I make, I make based on my own work and opinions. I have ZERO problem if I lose a bet because I made a mistake. I have a BIG problem losing a bet because of blind trust in others.
