SANTA ANITA Sunday, June 29, 2014

Two wins and one scratch on yesterday’s card. 

Today is closing day of the first ever Santa Anita Spring meet and another winning meet for me.  Win or lose, I have always reported my progress on a daily basis. Almost all of the public handicappers that charge for their selections brag about their winning longshots - including many who are not their top choices - but never report the win percentage of their top choices, the average winning price of those winners or the resulting ROI. I think players who purchase these services should demand that information and not purchase selections from any handicapper who doesn’t provide it.

Check back with me on Thursday, July 17, 2014 for the opening day of the Del Mar Summer meet. Good luck today!
