To be honest I was leaning toward the #4. I had to agree with Richie about the #7 who beat the #4 in the tandem. As we talked before I have tendency to pick the place horse more than the winner. In this case I would bet both to win as Richie knows.

Best time to hcp
Hi Jim: How are you??
Since most of us are Rookies with the matchUP what do you advice. 1) Do the hcp before we go to the track. 2) Hcp each race as it goes by. The reason that I am asking this is because I noticed that if I hcp a night before and the next day I go to the track. In some races, there will be scratchs and I have to re hcp the race again. In the last 3 times that I did this. The horse that I picked the night before WON the race but because of the scratches I went on another horse. emilio |

Arrive at the place of action early, because you must be ready
to attack. This is a new day and must be faced with confidence and a positive attitude. Any negative attitudes or thoughts should be cast aside. Make sure you have everything needed for today's battle. Here are reasons for early arrival: 1. Locate a comfortable, quite well lighted area. 2. Locate the betting machines and obtain a voucher, because if there are long lines you don't want to get shut out. 3. Get early scratches, track conditions, and if races are off the turf. 4. If attending a simulcast outlet, locate the monitor for each track. 5. Review races to play and ones to disregard. Handicap in advance as much as possible, because once the action has started it is possible to become uncertain and make mistakes. Tips for Advance Handicapping: 1. Divide your Racing Program into segments for each track. 2. Identify the running style of all horses. 3. Place a mark by early pace runners with pace figures that shows the inability to gain or maintain the lead. 4. Mark all Match Up Tandems. 5. Place a mark by all horses that are not contenders. 6. Place a mark by the contenders. 9. Never underline the pace line. The Hat |

Going back and seeing that the 1a had run a 1 turn mile that could not match the 7 shows a really important point to me. 1st- by using ALL the pace lines you don't have to make adjustments. This also shows why computer programs don't work. Most use 1 or 2 lines to make the calculations and that just doesn't work. Hat Great to see you helping people on this forum. I still use my Aodds 98 program when I do have a chance to wager and I want to ask: 1. Can I use the pace of race that the program calculates? This doesn't depend on 1 line does it? 2. It comes up with usable tandems and I assume that is still correct? 3. It also shows running style for the horses-this is based on all lines isn't it? If these things apply it then this makes it easier to do the remainder of the Match Up. I will start my education with the next practice race. Thanks to RichieP for your time and effort! Glad I found this site! Hat How will we be able to order your new book? Will it be from you? CC |

To win the race it is essential that you recognize how the race is going to run. You must look at the first call in the race and find the horse that is most likely to get out of the gate first and take the lead. Then
ask yourself, can the horse go wire-to-wire. The race is an example illustrating the process used to project the pace in a pace-less race. Once we project the pace, the horses will be matched against this pace to decide if they are contenders. None of the horses in this race are Early horses. In their past performances, some of the horses have gone for the lead, but their first calls are extremely slow. This race is classified as a pace-less race, but someone must take the lead, in a pace-less race look for an Early Presser as the horse most likely to take the lead. There are two Early Pressers in the race: (3) Artist Blush and (7) Pay Attention , but the 7 horse runs closer to the pace. The 7 will get the lead by default and go wire-to-wire. The Hat. |
