    Price Horse Central – 9/3/10 – Comments and Suggestionss

    Posted By Mark Geiger on September 3, 2010

    Sometimes even if they run second, there can be some nice rewards when playing price horses.  So it was with Moose High who ran a nice closing second in GG’s sixth and when keyed with a couple of obvious horses yielded a nice exacta.  The Miller/P Val team continued to do well and you would do well to pass races in which you cannot figure out a way to use them.  Gnarly Dude paid 14.60 in the 8th at DMR and he even got Mullins off the schneid. DMR (3:30 start) Race 1:  Pass (more…)

    Price Horse Central – 9/2/10 – Comments and Suggestions

    Posted By Mark Geiger on September 2, 2010

    Today is a travel day so this is the “handicapping light” version of this tome and after a rather frustrating day in which the radar was slightly askew, that’s not a bad thing with a big weekend of handicapping upcoming and having the attention slightly divided by dipping the toes into the pigskin pond. I don’t do a lot of commentary on horse racing issues and news – that’s what Warren did so well and it’s really not my gig.  However, it seems as if the geniuses in Sacramento have passed a takeout hike and will allow (more…)

    Price Horse Central – 9/1/10 – Comments and Suggestions

    Posted By Mark Geiger on September 1, 2010

    Closing week at SAR and, with the exception of an extra day next nearly such at DMR.  Not too much in barn changing land on the Eastern Front.  A few things to look at in Cali. Del Mar Race 1:  Pass race with mixed signals.  BIg Revolution (9) is suspicious dropper chalk for Miller and P Val.  Magical Instinct (2) showed good speed last out before the fold and Rosario gets on.   JT combos 2, 4, 7 Race 2:  Pass race in which it looks like Winter Camp (6) may be (more…)

    Price Horse Central – 8/30/10 – Recap

    Posted By Mark Geiger on August 30, 2010

    Thanks to Larry A. who pointed out a wrong program number on a CF that won SAR’s 9th on Monday. Since July 21, I’ve posted 333 of these critters.  Of those, 134 or 40.2% have won and another 63 ran second for an exacta percentage of 59.1.  The winners returned 762 bucks and flat bets on each would have brought a profit of 1.14.  These shorter term results are in variance with long term results and I’ve never claimed that this is some sort of black box win system.  It’s not in my nature to be playing (more…)

    Price Horse Central – 8/29/10 – Quick Hit

    Posted By Mark Geiger on August 29, 2010

    So, there I am watching the track feed from Saratoga and the two know-it-alls on their intertrack system, who have an opinion on every race run at every track with huge egos to match, are yakking about Rachel this and Life at Ten that with just a scant nod to Zenyatta who “runs in California.”  Pathetic.  I almost threw my cup of water at my computer screen but then realized that would be even more pathetic. I’ll just turn to noise down when I’m tuning in there henceforth (like Monday afternoon). I’m guessing that (more…)

    While the Cat’s away in Foo Foo town, taking some money from those snooty east coasters, the rest of his crew cleaned up the joint in San Diego. Looking to get out of this week with girlfriend Tammy who starts Link to My Heart (7) in Arlington’s 6th.   Looks live a live claim and she does a very nice job with this sort off the ML of 6/1. Recap will be up Monday or Tuesday. Del Mar Race 1:  Pass they’ll be all over The Phenom first (more…)
