Wed. @ The Big M

[MaTH716]

JC's horse seemed steppy early, thought he was going to break, Maybe that's why he went to the front. The four horses that stayed on the cones ran 1st to 4th. Andy Miller kind of scattered the field when the anchor came out. So much about my theory about the outsiders not winning, but that is why he probably went off at such a price. People think these guys have no shot.

6th-9th

Laura Jones breaks her maiden in her debut at 8-1 (15-1ML). So tough to get a gauge off qualifiers...

I have to admit, I really do not do that well in Harness. I have a tough time with the conditions and qualifying races. I played 13 races last Sat and didn't cash a ticket, it was very fustrating. I do tend to trying to beat the chalk.

Its very similar to T-breds in the aspect that alot of it is about the trip. I followed Balmoral religiously for quite some time, and when the horses are racing every 7-10 days, it makes it a bit easier to cash back on the troubled trips.

I need to give of the T-Breds and go back to the 1 mile harness tracks at night.

I watch the Big M alot, and it seems when one of the horses are in good form, they can beat almost anyone. Plus it seems like the same horses race against each other every week. Another angle I have trouble with is horses coming over from 1/2 and 5/8 mile tracks. I just don't know what to do with them.

I will just about always bet against a horse coming off a win at a short track from an inside post. The great majority of the time, they will be overbet. I tend to try and find horses from those tracks coming from the outside, that may show even just the slightest bit of closing kick. There can be a ton of value there.

He was confidently driven and had the perfect trip. Manzi sitting like a statue in the stretch, he is such a stiff.

winner was 12-1 ML, opened up at 9-5 and wins for fun at 5-1

[MaTH716]

Merton's horse was 7-2 ML and he didn't take any money. You really have to watch the board at that place.

[MaTH716]

Did you have the exacta? I know those were your 2 double horses.
