It usually happens after a day of taking losing shots and I need an "easy" win to get my money back. I load up on an "unbeatable" favorite at some dog track like Penn National, Retama, or charlestown. Usually its a Scott lake or Cody Autrey or some other "super" trainer's horse. I know this is just the beginning but i feel that it is a good first step.

Chalk or no chalk. Doesn't matter. Winners are all that matters. If a chalk wins he is a good bet.

Chalks rarely win and you get almost no profit

Nothing to be ashamed of
I from time to time am guilty of playing chalks.
That said, for example, today at CD race 1 $100 win on the 8 $80 exacta 8-4 and $20 exacta 4-8 equates to net profit of $390 plus. When it works it is nice. However, when it doesn't you feel like **** Bottom line, chalks do win about 30-33% of the time and if you can isolate a chalk with another horse for an exacta or daily double it can get you some $$$. psh

chalk, isn't that what Teachers use in the classroom?
 I am in the process of setting it up - BTW vs Cunningham in a Steel Cage Match in the infield at Churchill Downs during Derby Week 2007. Details forthcoming in the following months

My user name is Banter, and I have eaten chalk.
During the past year, 2006, I have been a follower of chalk trainers and have lost money. Hey! I still have the Excel charts to prove that betting the chalk trainers, namely Pletcher, Rigatierri, Wolfendale, Morey, Vaders, Trombetta, Clark, Ziadie, Hollendorfer, Beattie (both Todd and Stephanie), Autrey, etc., will lose money in the long run. Less than a 30% win rate, 60% ITM--at the chalk rates those trainers get at the window--wil garner selective returns but wil not pull an overall profit in this game. Only Catalano, Miyadi, and Klesaris--largely claining trainers with win rates above 30% and 60% ITM--have posted nominally positive ROIs for 2006. No wonder I was a heavy backer of Catalano's Dreaming Of Anna in the BC. That trainer has proven himself over the long haul (I would like to cast my vote for Catalano for Trainer of the Year). I would be happy to see Miyadi and Klesaris have similar opportunities in the BC. But that's a subject for another thread. I have been sober from betting chalk since Siphon City. He posted an ultra-commanding win in the Prairie Meadows BC (of course I was not on him in that one) and tanked thereafter (of course I was on him in those). After SC's loss in FL I stopped betting chalk, either by horse or trainer. For the record, I had four of nine winners on BC day (the crowd was such that I couldn't make my way into Churchill Downs in time for the first race)--It's No Joke, Dreaming Of Anna, Miesque's Approval, and Invasor. None of those were first favorite in their respective races, but even with MA I did well to break even. I will say this--as a former chalkeater, sometimes it's all I can do to resist the temptation to bet chalk. So I should ask: What's the 12-step program to help chalkeaters resist?

My friend Steve, there is NO answer for the above question. Does he have a KG stamp with IRS and does he file? Whether you choose to believe it or not I know 7 people over my lifetime(myself included) who have made well over a Mil. gambling. All of us have turned ourselves inside out to remain undiscovered and annonymous. The above endorsement of your friend WREAKS from something written on a child's blackboard. Why does this "mutt" continually have to be stroked? BIG MONEY and a LAVISH lifestlye is all one really needs as a reward for winning. Why BEG for boquets from a bunch of kids and fools on an internet site who are more than likely still shooting for their first hundred grand.

 ...I asked for ONE horse...just one to share among DTers...thats all.... Honestly, I don't want the horse nor do I need it....the whole point is how can somebody come on here and bash others for giving out horses and proclaim themself as a premier handicapper in the country while bashing everyobe else's handicapping analysis - and then fail to provide any analysis or selections themself??? Its total hypocracy.....I'm sure Andy is a great handicapper...I wouldn't know though because he only likes to bash other's angles....
