Maram Wins!




Not a bad first day of Breeder's Cup racing, and the fillies and mares put on a great show. My selections were pretty good as the opening race was the only one I totally whiffed on. My method is not about picking winners so much as finding the likely contenders, assigning value and playing the horse that offers the best value or not playing at all if the valuation standards are not met.

Loved Zenayatta's race! What other horse can go 6 wide and get taken even wider by another competitor and still win with such ease. But Zenyatta was not a value play. The value play that paid turned out to be the 11-1 Maram in the 1 mile BC Juvenile Filly. You don't have to find too many of them to make your day!

Let's hope the boys can put on as good a show tomorrow as the girls did today.
