“Its more than a hobby for me.”

Wow, I’m impressed. You can keep your advice. You have no idea who you’re talking to.

It doesn’t matter who I’m talking to. I know the data. Plenty of horse people don’t believe the data. And plenty of baseball people believe clutch hitting exists as a repeatable phenomenon too. And those baseball people are ignorant fools.

I do suppose that analogy is a bit harsh. If you’re an experienced, profitable thoroughbred handicapper and you’ve got an opinion on a jock, it might be worth something. Maybe.

Take a Racing Form and ignore the jock info. The loss won’t hurt your wallet. Take the jockey info away from a harness program and the handicapper who has it will become very wealthy, very quickly.
