I am easily your biggest fan. DT is much better off with you than without.

My top whatever favorite things about PG, in absolutely no particular order.

1. 1985
2. Your ability to change your mind more often that Imelda Marcos in her shoe barn.
3. Your ability to hex anything.
4. The way you rile up people is true genius.
5. The way you suck up to people that you know are better at this stuff than you.
6. Your dogged persistence to stay around.
7. Your obsession with GC.
8. How your obsession with GC always gave you away when you came on here with yet another name.

I'm sure there's lots more too.

Clearly no one is better then me, hence the #1 ranking on this list. My obsession is changing a bit. I love RHT as a sire, I cought him early on with turf horses, before anyone really knew. Im also really loving Candy Ride, check out HollyWood Race 5 yesterday... I had a small win bet.

How exactly was that horse's pedigree relevant? It was his 20th lifetime start and his 13th consecutive grass race.

Why ask why?

Dude, don't you keep track of how sire's progeny run in their 13th grass race? That's key info.
Candy Ride's are always hot in spots with 12 turf races under 'em. Everybody knows that.

Can we have other forum members submit their list of top 5 handicappers??? Kinda like our own version of the BCS??? How about a minimum of 1000 posts to be eligible to submit a list??? (This should be funny.)

Love this idea. Even though I don't have the thousand posts to get me a vote in this "DTS" poll, if I did -- and just based on what I personally have witnessed on "Selections" threads -- my Number One is a young, tooth-chipper that goes by the name of Rootdog1. All I ever see on those threads is that guy cashing Pick-4 tickets! Even his beats seem to be the horse's fault and not faulty handicapping on his part.

Both Hockey and myself went from July 1st through the Breeders cup posting every graded race held on a Sat, 148 races in all and both showed a profit. Rock Hard doesn't stand a snowballs chance in hell of equaling that.

Point Given 1985 once went 9 for 9 at a NY OTB, sweeping the pick 4s, pick 3s and the pick 6. His only mistakes on the card were missing the trifecta in the fourth and seventh races and missing the exacta in the seventh as well.

In all seriousness, DrugS would have to be at the top of my list. The list would also include Serling.
If we are talking about just true public handicappers, add Joe Kristufek as well. If we are just talking about people on DT, relative newcomer Gaining Ground is becoming an opinion I consider valuable, as is Bogey's.

I have to agree. It feels like DrugS puts more research into his handicapping than anyone.

I would never take the time to figure out there was a filly named Olympic Glory on the same card as Zardana in Brazil and who defeated a different filly (forgetting the name...Fiesta Lady??) who once compteted on even terms with Cocoa Beach.

[herkhorse]

since when does 2 blog followers qualify you as a public handicapper?
