Betting horses profitably is as much about clever and creative betting strategy as it is about clever and creative sound handicapping.

My approach to betting the Turf Sprint (I talked about the strategy in the 1st post) turned out to be an absolute masterpiece...the difference between a very good day and a great day. It allowed me to catch Dancing in Silks in the BC Sprint on a spread with a still affordable ticket. Can't say I liked DiS much, but he did have the fields best last race Beyer - and had proved he can win without the lead.

great job all weekend. ****in killed it. the only other person that even MENTIONED Vale of York was Sniper (who also had him as his top selection.)

Dancing in Silks wasn't impossible by any means. if you ignored the morning line... it was a wide open field. he was my 4th choice behind Fatal Bullet, Capt, and Gayego. I didn't like Cal Flag at ALL, which really cost me.
