Obviously you guys do pretty well with the trots but personally I find them very frustrating and I lose frequently. I find that you may find the best horse in the race but that means nothing if the driver doesn't give it a chance. what I mean by this is that time and time again the driver's on horses that is in the running line and has two horses behind it in the running line with a lap to go, wont make a move until something comes out three wide in front of it. The problem is that if this is one of the horses behind it making the three wide move the other will always follow leaving the horse third from the back in the running line, 3 wide and 3 back. As far as I am concerned this is the WORST spot to be. The driver, whether they're driving a favourite or outsider should lead the 3 wide line and if it loses, well at least the horse had every chance as opposed to none. So often at the end of the race i'm left frustrated because the horse I backed was never given a chance.
