Stathead Matt's Picks for 7/29/2010

Well, it was bound to happen. 1-for-9. It hurts. It hurts a lot. Do I feel any better because the one race that I did hit was hit for a $142 trifecta? A little, but not better enough. I owe one to your wallet. I am also knocking my number of listed horses back down to seven. That way, even if three horses listed scratch, you can still have enough listed for a superfecta, but I don't have to list 400 horses per race. Maidens are still only listed top five because of a lack of data and are listed with a *. Here we go.
