I think Maggie's area of expertise in in how horses look physically, so she is supposed to be telling us who has dapples and whatnot. But, I agree (and think it's a great idea) that it would be beneficial to have someone showing people how to go about betting the horse or horses they like.

My question is are the newbies listening to Andy and the gang? If they are do they understand it? I listen and have learned a great deal about handicapping but a lot of it deals with race dynamics, trips, and stats that are garnered from formulator etc......
