Thanks. I really appreciate it.

To me, it's easy to pick " alternative " horses, in that anyone can tell who the favorites are, and pretty much why they are favored. Nobody needs to be told these things. And, since frankly no matter who you pick, you will always be wrong some version of most of the time, it's easy to at least offer some food for thought. There are plenty of ways to look at most races, yet another reason we all love the game, so why not find the reasons that interest you the most, and try to share them. You can never please everybody, but overall the greatest good is served by at least offering these perspectives outside of the obvious, as long as at least occasionally your right.

At the same time, you can't just pick against every favorite, as some are strong ( and these can be your friends in multi-race bets or even other exotics ), but you have to try to find the more vulnerable ones. It's really no different than trying to make money playing.
