Good guy.

But like a lot of judges, he couldn't cut it as a horseman. So now he judges them.

Seems to me he knows nothing about racing from any perspective.   That or the first response here containing “no gambling” is inaccurate.  At least if he was gambling, he would have an excuse for his incompetence.   

Who are the other 2 judges that are scared to death of him?

That lawyer sounds a lot like "Randy Bennett", may he rest in peace.

and I can tell you that there were orders to destroy hard drives and disposed of containing evidence in certain cases so not to humiliate the industry.

and if the judges had never trained or drove youd complain they had no clue becuz they never experienced it first hand. participants suck and blow on this issue all the time. pick a side.

  • Papillon: I don't think they are playing every combo, but they are betting more $ in the carryover races
    Today at 03:25:17 PM
  • Trigger: Flawed, if there is a carryover not every combo is being played.  You can't make money having playing AAAAAA if there 200 winners.  If CAW is winning everything why play, they're surviving off a low % of rebate against win/loss and work with gigantic volume.

  • Papillon: o agree with MTP1972-much more CAW action in the carryovers-not sure how much more than standard-the carryover is a mirage
    Today at 03:12:37 PM
  • MTP1972: I have a different take on carryovers. If you're betting a track who has a good handle like Mohawk the Early Pick 5 pool is around $100,000, maybe $50,000 for the Pick 4 pool. When there's a carryover the CAW's bet thousands into the pool and have every combination covered multiple times. In a smaller pool there's a better chance for a big score because less of their money is in there, same for the Pick 6 in California.

  • Trigger: Thanks Calhoun, GL to you too, big scores ahead!  Check out Mohawk last Sat early p5, $67891.89 .20 payout w/ 3 horses < 3-1 odds, the other 2 races, nw1 and claimers, wow, the perfect storm.

  • Calhoun: Yeah, moron is way too lazy.
    Today at 02:34:32 PM
  • Calhoun: Trigger, $25k/$500per week. Sounds great. IMO, you have 2 best options. 1) 100% of play on certain CarryOvers.  Pick-5 Carryovers are best. Pro is Near EV or +EV. Con is it's a ton of work in 1 day at worst or 3/4 days at best. But $500 gets you a lot of coverage. ..2) Focus 100% on one track, WITHOUT a lot of ship Ins. Woodbine, Remington, SoCal and Texas fit. WDB and Rem closed/closing. Whichever you choose, you need to know every single horse. You MUST have access to workout videos. You need to learn trainers. Good Luck
