Thanks for making a good point I missed regarding Nick's picks. They have a level of sophistication that even someone like me (16 years using TG)found new and illuminating. As has always been the policy of Jerry, Alan and the rest of the TG staff, the forum door is open to questions about why a certain pick was made. In truth, that was how I got to know more about Nick. During Del Mar this summer, I e-mailed the office to ask incredulously about how he could possibly pick a horse who was so much slower then the legit contenders and more incredibly make the horse a Bplus bet. His response which appeared on this board after the horse won and paid $60 centered around age issues and new tops. Qualities to look for in a break- through pattern before it happens etc.It's a lot of sophisticated stuff what I like to refer to almost as "grad school" for sheet users. And I'm not talking absolutes here as the reality is there are no absolutes in this game. Jerry and Alan disagree with some of Nick's methodology. That's why they have windows. Again the only thing that matters at the end of the day is, Are you winning? Can you win? This guy Nick wins.
