Wayne .. will NOT disagree with the Illinois Derby being a good one..... recall last year .. WarEmblem was a leading choice for me, and I did well betting him to win mostly based on his I/D performance BUT the ones I've listed, as well as my other points of a) keep'em in OR b) chunk'em out have "statistical validity" for ME... I never use any info in my handicapping *(recall now, I only bet verrrrrrrrry selectively) that isn't MORE than 80% correct. For the lurkers here .. I limit my wagers to the following races a) six fl CLAIMING sprints (my FAV) b) turf @ any distance any conditions c) some black type stakes (mayhaps a couple of dozen or so) I rarely bet on anything besides these three kinds, or, more accurately, more than $20bucks on any beyond the scope of these three kinds...... I did, after all make a two dollar throwaway and eventual loser win bet @ Turf Paradise in the sixth ... I think it was the sixth .. heh heh heh .. lost it anyhoo .... lol I had liked the preceeding race, and had an alert sent to me when he ran again .... so, I bet the two dollars .... <big spender me> as when I logged onto the site .. he was going off at 7/5 .. SO I backed up/down to $2 .....gggg he did place, beaten by the fav @ 6/5 and, I normally bet straight ONLY a few exactas, and verrrrry few tris , an occasional dd ... so .. I'll have to leave out the Illinois Derby from my list for a few more years ..... <gggg>
