Bill,Wouldnt you consider using the 2 as the counter energy horse in the race?I know it's your race so I hope you dont mind me asking.Jeff

Race 9
 

good choice of track Bill cause I never play this joint.

I'll take race 9 on the same card. Maybe a little late in the day bud? :)

Here is the race on Val3c

Counter Energy
 

u

Hi Jeff
That is a good question. Yes I would say the 2 is counter energy
I used the 1 in my exacta box because I figure it will be there
but Its odds for tier 3 are too low to bet for win and also
This horse seems to be afraid of the winners circle
I figure I would be a safe pick to maybe win but maybe it will run
second again

I like the two I see there is about 10 minutes to race 7
and The 6 is scratched in race 8

Now with it out of the race I might hide the 3 and go with the 2 /4

Bill,Thanks for the answer.Jeff

Bill,

I'm watching your race with anticipation and wondering if you are going to bet against the #3.
The #3 has a speed rating 2 points higher than anybody else and a line score 5.5 points better than any other and at 1/1.
For me this is an automatic pass.

Hi froggy I passed

Just didn't have a good feel for the race with the six scratched

Hope to do better in my next race

Richie and Bill,

I really enjoy watching peoples selections and how they got them.
With race 9 at this point in time the 8 is 4/1 and the 1 is 6/5. The 8 looks much the best to me (line score and speed rating). The 1 has the same line score and speed rating as the next two horses. To me that means a weak favorite. I think there might be some value here.
