Sometimes it can be tough to find value there -- track bias, trainer/jock colony, etc. It's especially tough with Bravo because 2nd and 3rd choices could in fact become the favorite, co-favorite or a tight 2nd choice. Bravo can make a big difference at Monmouth, both on the board and on the track. I've won races with horses that shouldn't have won because of Bravo -- strictly because of strategy and him outriding other jocks. It's tactical. I've also won races where I should have finished second because of a little "move" or something of the like.

He "knows" the track, and understands it in a way that others tend not to. He also picks up on the nuances before others.
