Bulls.hit thread 2: Electric Boogaloo
I want to start by saying I am a regular poster at derbytrail.com, I hardly ever post here but I read everything almost everyday. I guess in fear of being darted from there, I had to vent here... Since Andy is a regular there "BTW", I thought it would be best to do this here.
I like his style, the fact that he's a bit cocky, I like it, it works for me, but latley he is actually making me sick. Living in NY "10 min from saratoga" I follow NY I focus most of my betting on Toga, Belmont and Aqueduct. So i am truly stuck with this guy, I know some ppl will say dont watch or dont bet, but we all know thats not possible. My main problem with him, for example is yesterdays 10th race. Maiden Special Weight on the turf... Earlier that day on Talking Horses " the show he does every Ny race day" he gives out the 1 on top, stating that Clement had won with a first timer going long on the turf a week before, also throwing out some stats and saying the horse had amazing turf breeding on both sides. Not that it matters but Jason Blewit gave out the 8-1 winner, and Andy said that horse had " no chance". Back to the point, as well as giving the horse out on TV, the pick is also up on the NYRA website, clear, plain as day 1. WIth 15 min to post, he comes on and is saying, he will try to beat the 1, and would not bet him at the price, and is worth trying to beat. What type of cop out is that ? I continue to ask myself, is this guy for real ? He gives out the occasional winner, BUT he gives out a lot more lossers, and tons more horses he says can win, WIN. I bet every race day and this happens all the time, horses he touts in the morning and on the site, he no longer likes at race time, basicley he's giving out up to 5-7 horses a race sometimes, and it just does not make since. Maybe I am wrong about him, but I know for a face he rub's a lot of ppl the wrong way. What does everyone around here think of him ?
