Gary-- a question:

You stated, "if I hit one of these Triple Crown races with a big win, exacta, or trifecta payoff it's going to skew the results for my everyday picks on the positive side."

Is that because a)you're betting more units on the triple crown races or b)because the payoffs are typically larger on these races?

Im assuming its 'a'. If im wrong- please correct me- im not trying to put words in your mouth.

Under that assumption- however- i would have two comments:

1. I don't think you should separte your results. All the other 'hosts' and individuals who have made selections on this site- haven't separated 'playoff' results from regular season results (i.e. super bowl props, sides, and total picks were included in one's overall results).

2. Why are you betting more on the Triple Crown races? Do you have a bigger edge on these races?

Don't get me wrong-- i bet more on em also :). I like the gamble.
But with respect to your results- is there any legitimate reason why you would be 'chunk betting' these races- to the point that your results would be skewed?

One way or another- I don't think that the results should be separated-- even though these 'classic' picks (triple crown, breeders cup etc.) will attract more attention.

Thanks Gary-- keep up the great work.
