Shouldn't at least one of your top picks have a win, or even a race, in the mud if you think it's going to rain?

Just a thought, honestly not trying to be a wiseass.

Fair point. To be honest, I have had more success not adjusting my selections for wet tracks than trying to figure out which horses benefit. Just to keep it simple I guess. I do reduce my bet sizes. In 2004 it rained and the race remained formful. I believe Smarty Jones and Lion Heart were the top 2 betting choices.

I can't hold it against Nobiz that he hasn't run on an off track before. Without a doubt, rain would help Hard Spun's chances.
