Marc,
I just don't get it when it comes to the logic of Ragazin/Sheet users, certainly those that are as smart as yourself. You did an analysis of Empire Maker the other day and posted it the Sheets Board that was outstanding. I printed a copy and saved.
But then you follow up with
"No, not in my book. We know how well Mullins is doing, and why would we make so much out of a turf sprint, when looking at this horse's line? Turf sprinting is such a quirky little part of the game, and with no other turf sprints on Buddy's resume, it's literally the single number on all of the Ragozin Santa Anita Derby PPs that means the least to me."
We heard some of this same logic in the Chilukki argument(we can start that one over again if everyone would like). That this is a figure or race on Ragozin a handicapper should ignore or place limited value upon. Do they put this type of thing in their introductory kit. "Races to ignore or place little value in."
The same thing was said about Laurel 2/22. "Ignore those races, don't place any value on the numbers they were given when making handicapping decisions".
Reading lines on sheets can be difficult enough, now Friedman is asking his players to guess which numbers are totally meaningless, partially meaningless or meaningful.
One final note to the Ragozin customers--Bet with confidence this weekend.
