Players' Newsletter - November 17th, 2023
As we start putting together our holiday gift lists, I'll remind folks that the Race Lens heavy discount offer (that includes a full YEAR of ITM Plus) is still going on. Go to inthemoneypodcast.com/racelens for all the deets.
Speaking of Race Lens, right after Thanksgiving, Matt Vagvolgyi and I are kicking off our research series using Race Lens. The idea is to look at racetrack accepted wisdom and test it using the real numbers through the power of Race Lens.
Are first-time starters breaking from the rail bad bets?
Are first-time geldings good bets?
Do turnbacks in distance matter as much as many pundits say?
Does pace make the race?
We'll look at these questions (and many more) and we want you to help! Let us know what questions you have for us and we'll do our best to test them during this special five week YouTube series.
MYWAYP,
PTF
