I'm a big believer in the numbers, so please don't view this as criticism but rather as a quest for information, but how does one divine Dreaming of Anna's performance in the Pucker Up after looking at the sheets for the race?
At the price she was an automatic toss, but it's not like she won by inches and you could say, "Well, I got my money's worth. If they run this race 100 more times, maybe I win enough to come out ahead."
No, she destroyed the field, and it would be hard to argue that she would ever lose against that bunch.
So, how much should class factor into handicapping? Are the cues to look for that even though the numbers might be even the talent is not?
Thanks
