Richie,
I'm tracking a few races tomorrow, Oct. 27 at Hawthorne where I have used this method to select horses. I'm posting up the races, hides and selection.
I may take a shot at the 5th, 7th, and 8th races here. Looks like they could pay well if they come in.

Hawthorne Oct 27

RACE 3 (usually I just watch the early races)
Hide 4-2-1
6-Hunte-9/2 S/P
7-Chang-5/1 S/p
3-Galla-8/1 SUS
I have a correction for Race 3. When I went in to recheck my pacelines this morning I managed to wipe out my selections for the entire card. I think I hit a key while it was processing. So I went back in to reselect them and for this race I have a different result. Either I was working too late last night or I see better in the morning after my second coffee. Here's the change. I see I even had the PP for Chang incorrect. I must have been dizzy last night. I better go over the rest of the card to double check.
RACE 3
Hide 4-1-6
2-Want-6/1 PRE
3-Galla-5/1 SUS
5-Chang-5/1 S/P

RACE 5
Hide 2-8-5
1-Cama-4/1 E/P
4-Sulli-6/1 EAR
3-First-12/1 PRE
Here there was something I didn't like about the 4 horse. May have been the paceline or he exhibited some problems. Decided (if I go in) to make a Win bet on the 1 and Box Exacta 1-3.
ANOTHER CORRECTION -
RACE 5
Hide 2-5-8
3-First-12/1 PRE
6 IM GR-8/1 LAT
9-Flor-9/2 S/P
BL/BL shows 3-9-6
I would just make a win bet on the 3 here or he 3-6
ANOTHER CORRECTION TO RACE 7
(I'm going to delete the original entry so this doesn't get too confusing)
RACE 7
Hide 4-5-7
2-Illin-20/1 E/P
1-Expen-4/1 SUS
2-1 Win Bet, Exacta Box 2-1
BL/BL Has 2-1-3 here.

I made a change here.
RACE 8
Hide 5-1-7
4-Pacif-5/1 E/P
10-Miss-10/1 PRE
3-Prove-10/1 E/P
Win -4 and 10
Box Trifecta 4-10-3
Ex Box 4-10

In some cases I'll just watch it, in others I get an itch and jump in. I usually sit out until about 3 minutes to post. If I like the odds I go. These aren't recommended picks, I'm not that good yet. If you want to bet them a couple of bucks won't hurt, the return is good.

I'm not going to correct race 8. This is easy enough to do. Go in, select your pacelines, hide the top three energy horses, go to Matchup Screen and you have your winner (I hope).
