What Win % is Realistic for the Top Trainers?
« on: March 23, 2023, 05:29:35 PM »
When arrogant, brazen trainers choose to ignore the judges and care less about the impression ... how is the obvious addressed?
Best trainers seems to turn in a 20% MAX Win % and a UDRS @ maybe, maybe .325.  There are trainers that perhaps that can compete at a slightly higher level; but, when previously mediocre trainers suddenly score 3 X higher than the year in/year out best trainers .... why don't the stewards of the sport / directors of the paddock step in to address the situation?  Frequent trackside bettors look over the program and if they see a high % listiing as trainer, they don't spend a minute handicapping and go straight to the window to bet on the name that shows a tripled score over the others.
Wagerers and other horsemen forced to make an attempt at betting and/or racing against others that appear to be working with an unfair advantage.
This is very bad for the sport; and, detrimental to the window action..

Track officials figure that the job of the testing labs is to catch the super trainers,not theirs! The last thing that judges want is to have hearings.This is why you see the deals made to avoid appeals!

  • MTP1972: I have a different take on carryovers. If you're betting a track who has a good handle like Mohawk the Early Pick 5 pool is around $100,000, maybe $50,000 for the Pick 4 pool. When there's a carryover the CAW's bet thousands into the pool and have every combination covered multiple times. In a smaller pool there's a better chance for a big score because less of their money is in there, same for the Pick 6 in California.

  • Trigger: Thanks Calhoun, GL to you too, big scores ahead!  Check out Mohawk last Sat early p5, $67891.89 .20 payout w/ 3 horses < 3-1 odds, the other 2 races, nw1 and claimers, wow, the perfect storm.

  • Calhoun: Trigger, $25k/$500per week. Sounds great. IMO, you have 2 best options. 1) 100% of play on certain CarryOvers.  Pick-5 Carryovers are best. Pro is Near EV or +EV. Con is it's a ton of work in 1 day at worst or 3/4 days at best. But $500 gets you a lot of coverage. ..2) Focus 100% on one track, WITHOUT a lot of ship Ins. Woodbine, Remington, SoCal and Texas fit. WDB and Rem closed/closing. Whichever you choose, you need to know every single horse. You MUST have access to workout videos. You need to learn trainers. Good Luck

  • Trigger: I guess I took offense that he called me a moron twice in the post while being factual wrong about the subject.  I'd prefer he call me an asshole!  ;D
