Blew a huge score here yesterday making Fair Weather Stan the Longshot Alert play as opposed to keeping him in the body of main selections. (And he did start out in the body of the selection...)
Using the 5 horses suggested in the P3 play in the P4 would have boosted P4 cost to $80 from $48 and brought back $1,700. Sickening... And of course top pick and much the best Artie Hot should have won the race anyway had laughable Juan Leyva not moved too early on the runner up. (Wouldn't have paid $1,700 in that scenario of course.) How Fair Weather Stan was allowed to go off at 19-1 is beyond me, (6-1 in ML), and shows how annoting it can be to 'publish' picks. Fair Weather Stan was "interesting and useable" at 6-1 when writing up the race in the morning, but was totally loveable at 19-1 at post time.. All the late action was there and I was unable to put them together properly. Hope you spread them together better than I did... And I won't even talk about the Aqueduct results which were similarly maddening...

Your handicapping is truly outstanding and scoring yesterday on a small ticket was very tough. I played a 2x5x2x6 ticket and was live going into the last but I left out My Own Story and ran 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 6th, 7th and 8th. Keep up the great work! As an aside, you're being too kind in your Juan Leyva reference. I see him ride 3 or 4 a day at Calder and do not believe I have seen him ever win on anything but the much the best horse.

"I blew a huge score yesterday," Steve stated.
Steve, I have been here only a few days, and in this time I've noted what you've hit/cashed each day. What you've missed by a hair, as well. At the same time, noting the number of people that are READING every one of your picks. I'm sure many are using these, some, maybe, without time for their own handicapping. Don't fret when you don't hit, certainly, not with apology to others in mind. The fact that you do this, willingly, each day is beyond generous. It's unheard of. Handicappers all over the country sell their picks daily to the buying public. Where online can anyone find 600-800 reads each day on a thread where someone has posted their tickets early, applying changes for scratches, etc, all the while, sharing with others? Much good racing luck today--its what you should hear and know is coming your way, each day.
