After 21 racing cards at Woodbine there is a logjam for the lead as far as number of winners at the meeting (Hits, Pick 1).
Picking winners is great but some handicappers tend to pick mostly favourites while others will try and pick horses of value in the win slot. Gabriele Di Paolo charts out all kinds of different stats – ROI’S (return on investment for $1 bet to win on 1st picks, 2nd pick, etc.), Hits (1st pick winning, 2nd pick winning etc) and then total winnings for a $1 bet. You can find Gabriele’s daily ‘sheets’ on Twitter @noahurstats.
**Take note, the tapeta main track was to be rolled after training this morning, remember to check the track maintenance info on Twitter and on the Woodbine website.
