I am a converted Ragozin customer to your service. If you check my account activity I am a pretty good customer and have had a lot of success using your product ( although I only came in 26th out of 207 in the Belmont Park Handicapping contest sorry for letting the Thorograph down) but for the life of me I can't see why you are bothering with this study. For all the effort, I can't imagine any big statistical difference between you and Ragozin and I think you are missing the point of why customers like me made the switch. You always seem to be thinking of innovative new ways to use the figures to help gamblers win while Len Friedman, at his seminars, tends to suggest that his method of reading the sheets has been profitable for him and he will continue on this path. You made a good point last week about a horse at Belmont who had good sheet numbers and in the past you and Len would have caught him at a much bigger price if not for more people being aware of the figures. I will tell you that I notice many horses being much shorter than they should be because their last figure is very strong and I know people who use your product and just pound horses that have fast last figures and take no account of the overall pattern. I believe those bettors are creating value for someone like me who has spent time learning how to "read" the sheets. That being said it makes your study even more of a waste of time. Best of luck on it though and keep trying new things. Even if they don't work, it makes customers like me think you are earning my money. E
