He's the best race caller in the business. I don't understand why he bothers being a linesmaker.

Nice guy, great family heritage.....bad racecaller, average odds maker..
I know I'm personal friends with the guy, but I'm unbiased when I say that Mike Diliberto of FG is the best morning-line maker in the game.....guy is a genius of understanding how horses will be bet...you can't even sneak him on a first time starter.....

He said he knows the guy. Big deal. I'm interested that he thinks he's good at the morning line. It would be interesting to compare morning line skills around the country. It's a test that could easily be done. (I'm interested, but not THAT interested, however!) --Dunbar

With regard to morning lines, I seem to remember reading that public morning lines came into existence in the 1930's. Prior to the making of a morning lines, favorites won at about a 10-15% clip...after morning lines became published, favorites winning jumped to the now standard of 33%. Does anybody know if that is correct?

I think making lines is very interesting. Battaglia is one of the few guys that actually attempts to make his odds lines realistic by making them add up to 1, or the whole (sometimes). You never see this sort of thing from phony lines like equibase. They rarely ever give a horse odds of over 20-1 or odds lower than 8/5 at smaller tracks, so they are basically horribly unrealistic and of no value. Just a waste of space and time.
