just not seeing it this year

As far as track bias , it's tough when the supposed top riders dive to the dead rail for no reason half the time.

I should have split my sentences and spoke about the 5.5f turf races on the Mellon as opposed to continuing from the inner turf course sentence. The prattle does talk about every horse which I use to augment my handicapping - are they mentioning something that I did not see in the form or on the track? Maggie's on-track and in-paddock observations are very useful for tossing horses that are acting-up.
