This is the greatest thing to come along to handicapping in the US in 15 years. YES, it's clearly a THIRD SURFACE. It's not dirt. It definitely shows similarity to turf (I will take a MASSIVE stand against Asi Siempre next out on dirt), but its NOT turf.

A third surface, soon to be in widespread use, equals a massive new handicapping variable. Added complexity. Its as natural a progression as was the changes in wagering from WPS, to the DD...the EX....oh my god! the TRI!....wait THE PICK SIX, SUPER, PICK THREE, PICK FOUR!!!! How on earth do you ever keep up??!!

See it for what it is; a new variable=added complexity=higherpayoffs....but only for those capable of understanding more complex data. I would think TGraph users would be overjoyed!!! the difference between you and the masses who dump money into the pools just got wider. And JB's service just got more valuable. Don't you see how much money there is to be made in "poly to dirt" angles???

But maybe some of you max out at just trying to figure out who will get to the first split in front. Then this is not for you.

As for the breeding industry.....its fantastic. The ultimate equlizer. Super valuable lines become less so. Less valuable lines become more so. It's called "regression to the mean".....translation; added complexity.....higher payoffs.....all good.
