Unfortunately, I don't put too much faith in them.
A lot can be hidden in workouts, and as you might know, sometimes they aren't even recorded. Who was the dark bay the other day at the Ok training track for Jim J?
Then you have the clockers clicking at different points. Was that a 5f or a 4f? Did you get that one when it was the 1/8 pole or from the start?
Too much "fudge" for me.

Now, from my own experience...Big Daddy Ray is "in" for the 9th race on Friday at Finger Lakes. He has no published works since June. He's been gelded (two weeks ago), came out of it in good shape. Unrecorded gallops.
Last time he ran, he was 53-1. He ran far back.
This time...watch out!
If he doesn't hit the board, I'm giving him away.

Jimmy wasn't good enough to completely cover it. The horse is plain brown. Hes not gonna be too hard to spot when he runs. he won't beat the boys on this one. The head dude actually was proud of me for spotting what went down. Naughty naughty trying to work between the poles!!!

Oracle- They're acting very dumb, pretending not to have any clue what I am talking about. Thats okay, like you said, how hard can it be to figure out who this horse is? We'll just have to keep checking all the maidens by Jimmy Jerkens. There cant be that many. I dont understand why they are playing coy with me when in the past they were so liberal in info sharing.
