Horse racing is a great sport when the best horses race against each other. Pretty much everyone now campaigns top horses as though they are college football teams. Play a schedule just tough enough that it wont kill you but dont take many real chances till the bowl game. You cant tell how great a team is by them beating Temple by 50. Sure you need a soft touch every now and then but play the best teams.
Freddy obviously prefers the Temple by 50 scenario.
