here is a short list of things I've "borrowed" from pundits/players/punters/pros in picking KD winners

Eliminiate these ...
act as if they aren't even entered in handicapping

a) Post Time Favorite
b) eliminate any which are NOT
aa) stakes winner
bb) past performance runners in at least one 1 1/8 mile race

and cross off those which

c) have fewer than 3 races this year
d) have more than 4 races this year
e) chunk out those which had a poor race at CD

Choose from only the runners who finished

A) == on the board in one or more of these races
Arkansas Derby
Blue Grass Stakes
Florida Derby
Santa Anita Derby
Spiral Stakes (formerly the Jim Beam Stakes)
Wood Memorial

and

B) == in the money last start

Workouts and/or races at Churchill are very important ....

bullets at any distance are very valuable
good times for over 5 fl are needed

it is good to have your pick show an affinity for the track by showing it in w/o.......

there ...
that makes it easy, no?
