Money Monday – Maiden Mayhem
It’s Money Monday at Parx Racing with nine races on the card and plenty of MAIDEN MAYHEM to kick off the new week. Maiden races bring more unknowns — and that’s exactly where having better information can create opportunities the betting public misses.
Rich and Terry will put the Smart Sheets to work digging into First Timer ratings, 2nd Race Parability, SIM Odds, SIM Speed, pace, C-Zone, % Chance to Lead and improvement patterns to help make those ambiguous maiden races a little clearer.
After smashing the Breeders’ Cup, the mission today is simple:
Recover. Reload. Find the value. Start building the bankroll all over again.
