Joe,

Can Pat ask for permission to load last? Hope you're coming down... Would love you to come on the Show Friday!

Apparently, PP's are overrated to him.

PP's matter when you aren't familiar with the horses. When it's horses that you've seen all of their races though, they aren't that important, IMO. For example, come Hollywood Gold Cup day, if Heatseeker, Tiago, Surf Cat and the rest of the usual California crew are in the race, I won't need to see the PP's cause I know the horses and have seen what they've done. Hope this makes some sense. I won't need to see the PP's for the Belmont Stakes either.

It makes sense.....and it's also about as bad a piece of advice as one can give.

Think that depends on who you are giving the advice too. If it's someone fairly new, yeah, it's not the best advice. But I would never tell you that I think you need to see pp's first. I'm going to assume that you already know the horses and have seen the majority of their races.

now you call Heatseeker one of the usual California crew.
But did you also not need PP's when he won at 30/1 and 8/1 in the last 5-6 months? If you are going to compete using only whats in your memory against people that are armed with objective data you are going to lose in the long run.

Aside from understanding the game better than everyone else....this is probably true.
