HANDICAPPING BOARD

Postby Shammy Davis » Fri Jan 01, 2010 5:38 pm

The handicapping board is a dead-end street. It rarely gets a post. I like to see the space used better. Handicapping is so subjective and rarely gets any attention.

What is the feeling that the website dumps it in favor of a RACEHORSE TRAINING board?

I haven't changed my mind. I'm still in favor of dumping the HANDICAPPING BOARD.

Please, I need help to get rid of the Handicapping Board. Post your agreement so that the powers that be will get the message.

I disagree. I like the handicapping board, even if the posts are far in between.

I think training is even more subjective then handicapping, but maybe a In The News catagory?

I wish there was a history category/board.

Problem is its so dead that if anyone wants to talk about handicapping things they just post it on the racing board.

I kinda like to look at it but only when the Derby or BC is coming up. Not much to go there for. Lots of other handicapping blogs out there. Most here seem to focus on Pedigree stuff, although the Training forum might be interesting and helpful
