Finished Handicapping

[DonGuido]

I basicslly look at early and late pace, see how they finished and lastly if needed the speed figure of the race and quality of the race. Consitency in all of those or improvement in their finishes is important. I also look trainers and jockeys, hot or not at a track or in general and those known for turf specialties or not. I like the turf races a lot. Bloodlines may influence me some if I'm still a little uncertain. Then there's always the dart board if I'm still scratching my head.

Honetly sometimes I will handicap races just using the DRF Entries and the ML odds are not always the key. I'll take this approach every once in awhile just for a change of pace. I have been pretty successful with that at times. I mean it's only for bragging rights and it's not real money.
