I do.
You look to the past to see what were the winners statistics. Then you look at this years colts and try to reach a comparison of congruity between this years colts and the past winners data. If this year there is a few animals that have the stats that would have made them winners in the past, at least you know they were capable of a win in years past.

Your kinda of simple aren't you.
