As I mentioned in an NCAA post, the racebook has been pretty good to me. I've spent a good deal of time learning to cap ncaabb and after 2 weeks have a whopping 1.5 units to show for it. 3 days of just playing picks from a horse capper has produced 5.5 (smaller) units profit. As much as I'd rather put $ where I personally can see the edge, results don't lie.

One advantage on a horse wager is that you often get + odds, rather than the - odds of other sports plays. This means that most 2-2 days will yield a net profit. Odds also make for a variety of plays - you can play favorites hard and take small shots w/ good odds, etc...

So, with a little head start, I'm going to run it out for the rest of the week as a kind of experiment to see if this can really be profitable over time.
I'll post the plays and results in this thread and maybe get some discussion about horse racing going, maybe get some more picks going, or maybe help others make some $...

Today's picks:
2 u plays
Golden Gate, Race 4, #4 (Bye Bye Birdie) (opening odds: 6/5)
Penn National, Race 6, #8 (Sterling Wisdom) (5/2)
Santa Anita, Race 4, #6 (Sigfredo) (4/5)
1 u plays
Gulfstream Park, Race 1, #1 (Storm a Brewin) (8/5)
Turfway Park, Race 6, #8 (Licole) (3/1)
Aqueduct, Race 5, #1 (Chazal) (6/5)

Note: today's plays alone stake more than the profits I've made so far, since all previous plays were at a flat 1u. If at any time losses exceed 15 u, game over. If wins exceed 15 u, then the press is on.
