Thumbs up Lot's of study material

Thanks for that post, Mr. Bradshaw, and another addition to the MatchUP 2 appendix/addendum/supplementary section in my newly created reference/special notes section at the back of the book.
  • Studying so much, The MatchUp 2 manual, The MatchUp manual (blue book), the post posted by Jim "The Hat" Bradshaw and RichieP, and sometimes the The red MatchUp manual....I think my eye's are bleeding..........
  • The MatchUp, so much study and practice involved. With the new MatchUp 2 manual and post by Jim "The Hat" Bradshaw and RichieP, studying has become a lot more fun.
  • The MatchUp is great, because you cannot blame anyone, or anything, not even the computer.
  • I like the MatchUp , cause with the MatchUp, you throw horses out, almost entire fields out .
  • I believe I heard Jim "The Hat" Bradshaw say on tape that virtually ALL races are spot plays to him. I could'nt envision that possibility until RichieP's post "ala", The Hat. Another reason to like the MatchUp:
      • "You MUST throw whole groups of horse's OUT of the race". - RichieP
      • "Yes, that's The Hat in action, man. Throw's whole chunk's of the field out IMMEDIATELY". - RichieP
  • Some of the spot plays we percieve so far:
    1. The Lone Early
    2. The Beaten Early
    3. The Lone Early Presser
    4. The Dominant Early among Early's
    5. Hidden Early
    6. The Lone Sustained or Late
    7. Lone Sprinter in Route 1st time/Dominant Sprinter in a Route
    8. A Presser or Sustained horse who got the lead in last race , and won't get the lead today plus faster than his 1st fraction lead.
    9. Tandem Pace of Race final time 1 second slower than projected pace, ELIMINATE entire Tandem (gets rid of lots of horse's).
    10. ELIMINATE entire fields of multiple matching Early's.
I look this list over, sometimes, BEFORE applying the 5 step process. Interesting results. And you mean there's MORE spot play's we don't know about........??????????..........wow........ VoodooFan
