Trying to buy a successful horse requires some effort every racing day. It is difficult to keep up once every track is running two 2-year old races every day. i know I quickly lose focus on what is happening in California.
Here is what I know I must do every day.
- Read the Thoroughbred Daily News (TDN) very carefully every day. Even their ads have a lot of information. They have a list of wins by sire for each day that is a great summary
- Scan the Paulick Report every day for important news stories. Today he had a very important story about the issue of “paper trainers” and some of the bad stuff going on at Gulfstream. I have to stay informed.
- I need to push myself to review the charts from each day to monitor claims.
- I must carefully review my Equibase trainer summaries for each day keep up the performance of the folks training my horses
I know I am not good at building a routine for each day, that is hard work for me.
