As logical as what you are saying may sound on the surface.....I totally disagree with it.

As an example, I often repeated DrugS's brilliant insights on the shows...giving him credit of course.

I guess I just figured out why there was so much more hatred directed towards me at Saratoga last summer.

I believe he reffered to me as "the lunatic living in the appartment above me."

And....that is honestly not accurate at all. I'm a soft spoken, humble, level-headed, 100% normal in all ways, Western Pennsylvania boy.

Shockingly, the soft spoken part is actually true.

For anyone curious as to the settings of the turf rail at Gulfstream this meet here they are:

Week 1: Rail at 84 ft.

Week 2: Rail at 60 ft.

Week 3 Rail at 36 ft.

Week 4: Rail was down

Exception was on Sunshine Millions day 1/27 for the Filly and Mare Turf only the rail was set at 72 ft.

Week 5: Rail at 72 Ft. (Including the Canadian this past Sat.)

Tomorrow starts week 6 and the turf rail is set at 48 ft. for the 3 turf races carded.

Hope this helps for anyone that was curious about the settings.

Thanks.

I'm sure some people who really study it can make money...I think it could be done. Me personally, I never could and have no desire to take the time to study it, which is why I don't bet.
