2nd call maiden are running over 1.35 in ROI at every track.
You have to find two things in your survey of tracks:1) does my STYLE predict races here and then in that subset 2) do those winners PAY enough?
Pimlico quailifed for the first and failed the second test, The Fair Grounds passed the first and only turf races passed the second. Being a FRONT END specialist, I look for courses that support that and SO FAR the new Anita surface does the same thing.
In the Legends race on Saturday, Sandy Hawley's mount was a stand out on that idea as shown. IT is the HORSE and nothing else.
