Pattern Recognition Races/Matchup Newsletter Preview

[VoodooFan]

Since intuition is a vital and integral part of The MatchUp, best to roll
up the sleeves and get busy. Us yankees are so hard wired in the 21st
century , relaxation is like an alien concept nowadays. So ,...here's my to do
list :


1) Rich, what on-line wagering service do you either recommend for california
or should look into ? The reason I'm asking is because :

a) To help relaxation, I found out long ago I can't concentrate and
even attempt to get at that " quiet place " you and The Hat
talks about at "live" racing atmosphere. Also trying to
handicap ahead of time in this environment is, for me, almost
impossible.

b) Don't like the questions on the applications they have you fill
out. Too much personal information ; your blood type, what
size jock cup you wear, etc,. , plus with identity theft and all ,
you kind of apprehensive of too many sources with your
information. BUT, if I got to bite the
bullet , I GOT to bite the bullet.

c) To master pattern recognition, to what I understand , you have
to pick races selectively. For me, avoiding all turfs , too many
mixed distance past performance lines , maiden races , and
possibly bullrings. Picking races where there is a CLEAR ,
verifyable Early horse with at least 2 recent lines that show as
such , no "flukes " , so as to get a 1st call projection. Then
work on the Lone Early, Dominant Early, 3 Multiple Earlys , and
the "Clear - Clear Early. The only other possible race to work
is the " Chaos " race , in which all the horses in their 10 lines
NEVER been in the lead . Because most times when I buy a
Racing Form, you seem to have to pass a lot of races to get
to the one's that qualify. If I have an on -line wagering
account , I can download load lot's of cards and have enough
plays to keep in practice.

2) I'm gonna buy that CD of Indian chants and music , play that for an hour
or so before handicapping , to see if I can relax. Probably have to try that
for a few weeks to see how it goes.

3) I seen some authentic bundled sage brush bundled by Native Americans in
the health food store, but they had another name for it. It is supposed be
ceremonial incence , so while I'm listening to the CD , I'll have that
burning to see if it helps accentuate relaxation.

4) Jim " The Hat " Bradshaw must've went to his deep place to combine the
psychology he knows plus Native American philosophies to teach and
relay the message to you to relay to us the importance of this mind state.
You truly are a perfect MatchUp student. Why do I say that? 'Cause how
in theeeeeeee HOLY HELL did he get you , a NEW YORKER ,
to accept RELAXATION!?!? Are you kidding me ? Are you serious ?
That crazy place with all the traffic , noise , fast moving pace , so noisy ,
so fast, EVERYONE has to talk loud and fast. Ever heard the term a
New York minute ? Definately a good teacher. Are you sure you're
Italian ? Methinks you may have some Native American in your family tree,
somewhere, to readily absorb this aspect of The Hat's teaching
