One thing I have learmed In my short 65 years, is dont get too excited about picking a 5/2 winner and dont get down on you capping with a 20/1 "only hits the board". I was in the very dumb catagory. My choice was Im a Numbers Man. I felt if this horse was within 3-4 lengths comming out of the turn he would blow by them.What a mistake it was interpreting his last win with a growing margin as a great finish and not able to see that it was the compitition a folding. With my experience I will not beat myself up but picking a 5/2 winner will not make me a wizard.
