Progress During Week 3!

All,
Week three's handicapping practice ended in a wee profit! Small but encouraging! When one is trying to develop a winning approach, often it is the overlooked video suggestion that makes the difference.
This week I found while class data was brought up on the screen, I went to the top class horses found clicking on the red button. However, there may be a significant difference between the ratings and in one case this week it made sense to stop and evaluate the ratings. One top class horse had a rating that was much better than the second rated class entrant. When I went over the results of the race it was clear to me that these GAPS need to be remembered when you finally evaluate the contenders. I always write down these top three class numbers to use in my final evaluation, so now I draw a line underneath the gapped class rating if there is one.
This week I'm putting additional emphasis on the projected pace of the race. Perhaps this will give me some additional ammunition for exacta plays.
