The Opposite Screen Thoromation

Jim "The Hat" Bradshaw taught the technique of the "Opposite Screen" in Thoromation. He disliked using the #2 Adjustment most of the time. The #2 Adjustment equalizes Total Energy for all the horses that you have entered in the race. This is a huge adjustment and used improperly will make slow horses look good and penalizes faster horse.

In the Instant-Preplay Screen in Thoromation the first screen that comes up is your confirmation screen. "The Hat" taught that instead of using the #2 adjust look at the opposite screen. In the Kentucky Derby the opposite screen was the SP screen.
