KRISTIN'S WAGERING SUGGESTIONS


HOW TO USE PICKS: Picks contained in my reports are set up in W/P/S format. For races offering Trifecta wagers, three selections are given, you may box the selections or play them any way you want to. On races offering Superfecta wagering, 4 selections are given, again you may box, play straight or in any manner you wish. I always try and put contenders in the exact order I think they will finish, however, no one, no matter who they are, can give the exact finish on every single race. Keep in mind that anything can happen during a race and the selections are there to aid you in your wagering by providing you with information to make your educated guess, no matter what anyone may tell you, no one has a crystal ball, horse racing is a matter of luck combined with educated guessing. The key is "educated", and when I give you these picks they are based on a variety of things: pace/speed/class/fitness/fractional calculations coupled with angles: trainer/jockey stats, horses exiting key races, workouts, post position information and other information that the handicapper may have knowledge of from playing that particular track so often. This information gives you an edge over players that do not have access to the information. Keep in mind that the picks provided, for example in a trifecta, contain 3 top selections and you can box those if you choose, but most players know that many times there are more than 1 horse that could win a race, or finish 2nd and especially 3rd, so you may want to add other higher value horses to those spots, that is where Exit Key Race Horses could come in handy and occasionally I will give Gimmick Booster selections so you can pad that trifecta or superfecta and hope for the best value to come through. Keep in mind that winners can come out of the top two picks, but occasionally out of the third or fourth pick and at good prices. In the picks I will occasionally add wagering strategies you can use in the event you need some help. They are only used as a guide as everyone has their own bankroll and wagering limits.

DD/Pick 3/Pick 4/Pick 6 Wagers: Use the number 1 picks on each race to set up these wagers. Depending on your bankroll/funding you may want to have more than one pick per leg, then you may use the others selections and even the EXIT KEY RACE horses or GIMMICK BOOSTERS when given and according to your funds.

Handicapper Comments: Numbers in ( ) after the running style (early runner-stalker-presser-closer) indicate the early speed ability of the horse, using a scale of 0 (lowest) - 8 (highest). First time starters will not have a running style or speed indicator. All firsters are listed as an N/A by their program # only with no speed rating after it. If a horse has had at least one race but no running style is yet discernable, they will be listed under the N/A category but will still have a speed rating listed. Also, if I indicate a "pass" on the race, this means I will not be putting my money on it because it is what I consider a "crap shoot". I will still give you information on the horses I think could contend in the event you decide to make a wager on the race. A percentage given within a ( ) indicates the win percentage of that specific angle: e.g. drops in class (20%) indicates the trainer wins at a 20% rate with class drops. Note that these are stats for the MEET unless otherwise indicated.

Abbreviations: Tr=trainer, J.=jockey, MTO=main track only, AE=also eligible N/A=running style not available MDN maiden special weight MC maiden claiming CL Claiming ALW allowance OC optional claiming/allowance Conditions: nx (non winners of 1, 2, 3 or 4 within a specific time frame as noted on the program) nL (non winners of 2, 3, 4 in lifetime) small s in allowance races signifies starters allowance. N$m (non winners at a specified amount at a mile or over) F&M Fillies & Mares 3YO (3 year olds) 4&UP (4 year olds and upward) HFC=horse-for-course DS=distance specialist NTL=needs-the-lead TS=Turf Specialist HORSES IN FOR A TAG: lists the horses that are dropping into MC company from MDN company. Sometimes this can be very significant.

ADDED FEATURES: EXITS A KEY RACE: indicates horses that are exiting a race where two or more horses from that race have already come back to win their next start. Significant angle and can be a good long shot play in many cases or a gimmick padder for extra value.

GIMMICK BOOSTERS: Horses that I think could factor in at good prices that are not contained in the top pick. These are given when I feel a longer odds horse has a chance to either pose an upset or get into the TRI or SUPER at good odds to pad your gimmicks. Will be listed as UPSET SPECIAL when I think this horse could win at long odds.
