Thanks very much Richard, your comment is greatly appreciated.

Betting is a big part of success and greatly neglected by the masses.

An example of this was last year we were doing races on this site from Delmar. That's a tough track because they card many turf races ,2 yr' old's and under developed 3 yr. The turf races there encounter many horses running for the first time on turf. The race put up was an older horse race and pretty straight forward but the best horse towered over the field with a low M / L, definitely going to be a low paying favorite. I didn't see a good EX for the race and winners are always easier to pick so I looked to the DD. The race after nothing jumped off the page for me however the race before was favorable. I hit it and DD paid over $ 500.00 for $2 ticket, the post and ticket bet is somewhere in my posts.

Many will dismiss that post as luck but it was nothing of the sort. My definition of luck has always been; " Preparation meeting destiny."
