Absolutely agree about using stats. When betting sports, it's 95%+ of what I do.
True Baffert doesn't send out many long shots. While I agree generally with using stats, and the Baffert stat is eye opening, there are times to toss stats. And for me, I'm not going to bet against AP today. However, those taking a shot against have that stat to bolster their position as well as other factors.
