In general, there are 2 levels of products, 3 on BC day. The "analysis" is for those who don't know how to use the data themselves, which we encourage everyone to learn to do-- those picks are made before we have a lot of information, like track condition (which may have made a difference in the turf races-- I've never given out a dead rail on grass, but I'm going to take a good look at it). On this particular day, there was other info we didn't have at the time I had to make the picks regarding trainers and shippers, as well-- decisions a handicapper could make for himself during the day. The seminar comes for free with the data, twice a year, and for someone who is doing their own handicapping should be more interesting (and possibly more useful) than just picks.
The "blink of an eye" comment is dead on. Unfortunately (in this case), there are a couple of times a year when everyone is looking at my eyes. Worked out better with War Emblem and Volponi, but those were also blinks, and that's the way it goes.
