Thank you for playing the races with us in Kentucky these past few months.

It was out of our comfort zone (and probably yours too) to handicap this circuit on a daily basis, but we believe we’ve been very successful.

Here are some of our take-aways from our months in the bluegrass:

1. Horses have to like this strip and have to have to handle it, but most importantly, you have to be in the right spot. The rail can be good: Borel is the only that takes advantage, but the majority of winners rallied wide this meet.

2. Because of the full fields, the Also Eligibles get in regularly and they’re always live (usually at a price).

3. Get to know the jockeys. Calvin is a great rider, but you have to understand he just tries harder for certain trainers (ie his brother Cecil, Ian Wilkes and Carl Nafzger). We also learned to stay away from Robby Albarado: he is more of a SoCal-ish jock and is constantly in the wrong spot here. Corey Lanerie is as professional and steady as they come. Brian Hernandez, Jr. has shown some tenacity and understands how to play the track. Jesus Castanon the same. Edgar Prado has been coming around and seems to be putting together a lot of business for Florida. Leparoux is Leparoux.

We have been exploring ways for the horseplayer to excel and enjoy this great game of ours. One of the best things we ever did was have the courage to change our circuit we had become so ingrained in. We feel we accomplished it with more than flying colors. The last two weeks we have done incredibly well, some of you scored in the four and five figures. We aren't going to stop there. We love California, but the value and the money is outside of California with full fields and better payoffs.
