USTA Strategic Wagering...Betting public thoughts?
« on: June 05, 2023, 01:09:57 PM »
What do most of you think of the USTA Strategic Wagering program?  Do you feel it adds anything more for the betting public than other products? Interested to hear your thoughts.

I used to love the Sports Eye for harness handicapping.

I used this (below) in the past as I think Trackmaster has the better harness format.
https://www.trackmaster.com/usta

For T-breds daily Racing Form hard copy at the track, or if online Brisnet is my preferable rag.

All my ADW's offer me free programs, I can access free harness lifetime pps through Trackmaster - and - pp's, pedigrees through Standardbred Canada's TrackIT.

Mostly accurate for T-bred pedigrees here (below):

https://www.pedigreequery.com/

The world is at our disposable, many tracks are offering free programs, or state racing associations sponsor too. 

But if you bet and you're serious don't ever skrimp, pay for data if you can't get it free, especially for the lifetime pps they help on those good / sloppy / muddy tracks to show the full wet track history story from the horse....how they come off layoffs.....shit loads of patterns....it never really ends! 

Data is good, can't get enough!   ;D

Whoever is in charge of this program has shit for brains. They usually put up the wrong program pages. Monticello's pick 5 as an example is races 3-7. USTA will put up races 3-6 or 4-8. More times than not they will get it wrong.
The guaranteed pool part of the program is excellent. You know it won't be $500 before track take out.
The Track Master program has a lot of mistakes so you need to do your home work and watch replays. The many free programs that are out there are cheap shit that don't even give you barn changes.
Harness Eye sucks too. They only give 6 lines most races and the comments are usually way off. Jay Bergman and Derick Gwiner ruined that paper. When Jack Rubin was there the Sports Eye was a must read every day.

If you are deeply studying just a few horses, the rtn.tv (or on your satellite, cable or Roku streamer) is, by far the best, as you can select high quality video replays (same as remote feeds) for ANYTHING.  If you want to look up the last 50 races that Horse XYZ has been in, you can do it.  If you want to look at a single race, any track, it is there (full screen).  If you want to watch an entire program from a track, go get it.  They have everything easily sorted and go back several years.  You can keep tabs on specific horses, as it will learn the ones you repeatedly want replays for.  You can tailor your subscription (and the price) to exactly what you want.  By far my most valuable handicapping and also horse-buying tool.  Horse listed on Ongait or Preferred Equine Online, don't just look up racelines, but WATCH every/any race of his/her you want going back as far as you want.  Watch them up close (equipment, gait, drivers, etc.)  NO, I don't get any commission ;>>)

Appreciate the compliment. And yes I agree I see how easy it is to get buried in the other parody.
