The ultimate measure of ones success/failure is your account balance at the end of the day/week/year. How you arrive at a positive expectation is your method. The quote (like most) is an idealistic view, but one I subscribe to.

Many times I have missed out on the “winner” of the race because of the fact that I was looking for … … … … … … the winner … … … … ..

I would’mt call myself a serious horseplayer.

We have the odds that go in most papers posted 2 days before the race. We get early odds crunched together fm the bookies early prices.
We also ge to see where some of he money going down goes on throughout the day.
We get to bet small over and over staying in the game.

The hard part is the patience, and knowing how to follow your nose and go in heavy when you just know the horse should never be “that” price.

I would’nt have the 1st clue how to write abook on it, or something like that. I can’t begin to explain what perceived value is either.

I think my approach discludes me from being a serious horseplayer. But i’m not messing about either.
