Opinion of the Best Handicapping Tool

I always felt it was best to handicap a few hrs. the day before and pray for no rain. Equibase virtaul stable is a nice way to track play backs. Even if your just watching a race and see a horse make a great run but may encounter a bad trip but you feel the horse had a real chance. Add him in your stable with comments and wait for a possible play when the horse runs back. They e-mail you workouts and when the horse is running again for free. It has paid dividends for me. Equibase.com free sign-up. Plus we all need alittle racing luck.

You forgot to add " if all else fails redboard winners the day after the race ".

Don't forget that Hooves needs to be banned as well.

I believe that goes without saying.

Jamie your clueless. Probably hang out at city walk, church street or Alt. ale house. Keep betting the longshots with your $2. LOL. You come from a school with much history (Dr. Phil) at least be witty about your replies. Grade 13 c.college.

So, will you ever share what you thought made Six Cross Road an easy to play winner in that Tampa MCL?

Did you go to Oakridge? Probably so...

Let me know how it is over there in Tangelo Park, you scumbag.

No, from Md. but I sure will not take S*** from a 26yr old who thinks she"s cute. I live in Sabal Point, I'm sure you know it Jamie. I don't want credit or put anyone down with their picks but your comments are whacked. Hooves I apologized, take it for what is worth. Trust me when I tell you when I bet my hard earned $ it is with my picks good or bad. Funny to see this caused so much concern. Like Barbaro being put down. I feel sorry for a soldier over seas dying much more than an animal. Please put things in perspective. Who is crying about American Ivy (golden gate yesterday) today. I'm sure those close to that horse feel like S**T today. I fought for my country and I feel you have the right to say what you want. But it goes both ways. Deal with it

well i'd imagine anyone would feel more for a lost soldier than a lost horse--doesn't mean we can't or shouldn't feel anything for barbaro, or any other horse. plenty of sympathy for everyone.
and yes, any horse who is lost on the track is a sad story. that's probably why so many invested so much more in barbaro--so many times a horse isn't given a shot, but the jacksons were in the position to try to save him. the bitch of it is that some still aren't happy--they complain that they DID try to save him. then people complain about the ones who didn't try. damned if you do, or you don't....

I AM still waiting for your answer regarding Six Cross Road!

You called it easy money, please tell me how you got to thinking that horse was easy.

Of course I'm familiar with Sabal Point. My parents actually lived there at one point. What does this have to do with anything that I've said? What comments are you talking about? You come on this message board and act like you own it. Hooves has been a valuable member and shares his picks with everyone (win or lose.) I'm not a horseplayer, as I don't feel confident enough in my own picks to play on a regular basis, so who are you to judge whether or not I bet $2 or $2,000? By going onto my myspace page to dig for info about me and then insult my intelligence by claiming that the schools that I went to are garbage, just shows to me that you have nothing to go on. I'm a single mom. Where on there does it say that "I think I'm cute?" You think I have time to go club hopping on Church Street or waste my time going to City Walk? Read between the lines, pal and get over yourself.

As for Barbaro, I grieve for him and EVERY OTHER HORSE that we lose. I also fully support our troops and care very deeply for the losses that we incur. You need to learn not to judge a book by its cover.

By the way, she is cute and you are indeed a confirmed internet clown.

I glanced at your 35 or so posts and over 90% are bullsh1t red-board psychobabble; "I had that," "I needed that DQ," etc....

Aside from one incoherent comment about some soccer match, every single post is after-fact.

Totally useless.

Find it in your heart to tell us how you landed on that Tampa MCL winning cripple as part of your $11 Daily Double score, huh?

If you want to make it into the Hall of Internet Clown Fame, you're going to have to work harder. You're failing badly.

Perfect.

For what it's worth, you did the dirty work of discrediting you for us.

That post right there unequivocally proves that you know nothing about Jamie at all. I can say without a doubt that Jamie is far too humble about her appearance. She's cute, of course, but she'd be the last to tell you that herself. Matter of fact, she had about 70 consecutive hours this weekend with me to let me know how cute she thought she was....and not once did anything even resembling that sort of remark come out of her mouth.

So once again, we're right back to a poster acting ignorantly and using someone's age and the way they look as a basis for a character judgment. Hint: Doing so without fail gaurantees that you will be wrong and come off as a foolish tool.

By the way, since we're on the topic of education... it's "Jamie, YOU'RE clueless." Learn some grammar.
