Disclaimer: I am NOT suggesting that one should handicap without the "Original" screen. You need to have a grasp on the horse's history when handicapping a race. After all, this is the tool (raw pacelines) that most of the racetrack competition will be utilizing, so you had better know why a horse is being bet down, taking money, or being ignored in the wagering, as well as other factors such as class, speed, etc. If it sounds like I am talking out of both sides of my mouth, I assure you that I am not. Raw pacelines are still a tool that should be utilized, but its emphasis is one that is certainly overrated when one has access to more advanced handicapping tools.
