Great job on the ROTW. I played the super with the favorite and your live longshots.

Did we read the same analysis?

Here is what I read:

...we can play against the favorite Two Down Automatic

Either you follow the analysis or you don\'t, but you can\'t not follow it and then say how great it was, can you?

I\'ve found that the favorite is almost always in the super. That\'s my bet. I only need two hits a year to make serious money. What I need are the live longshots. Two Down automatic is a horse I\'ve watched since he out sprinted Smarty at Oaklawn. I bet large supers with the 2nd/12-1 and 3rd/13-1 place finishers on top. The saver, using the favorite paid $1,100 + and using the unique call on the 10 horse, I went large across the board. The figures on the winner\'s trainer showed he was very live on short rest. He just got up or I\'d have shot out the lights again. The ROTW was terrific.The great thing about betting is that we can keep score. There were soooo many ways to make money on the ROTW this week.

Spa,

Very nice analysis on Two Down. I didnt forget that effort against Smarty in that Southwest either. Two Down is a good horse. He\'s not a Grade I horse, at least not yet, but he stood a notch above those he faced yesterday. Tgraph did a good call with the number two horse and the third place horse for that matter.

We heard many times about how one shouldn\'t blast the ROTW, and correctly so, if you don\'t post your opinion before the race.  This is no different, just a cheap redboard.  There was some nice analysis in the ROTW, no doubt, but to come in say how great you did when the analysis clearly pointed against the winner, well, it smacks of a double standard.
