Ragozin sells about 10% of the number of SA sets you quoted in So Cal, and maybe about the same number at combined simulcast sites, although a couple of guys (especially one well known TV producer) can turn the tote on it's head by themselves. Between TG, Rag and Beyer, it is true that you simply can't expect to get the prices you used to on fast horses without pattern or trainer handicapping. On the other hand, in the old days you couldn't get rebates, so it washes out. And on that note, thank you everyone for your patience, we finally appear to have some movement, and those who have not filled out a questionaire on this site might want to consider doing so.
I also want to add that I am not unhappy to see the Ragozin money in the pools. On those occasions where they land on the horses I'm interested in I can choose to pass, and on the frequent occasions where the numbers are significantly off I can get a better price.
