Needless to say, when someone is trying to communicate with us and if they are not on the same frequency with us, the chances of coming together to form some meaningful understanding will be very slim.
"The Mindset of "I-am-right-therefore-you-are-wrong" Syndrome
It is evident this I-am-right-you-are-wrong syndrome remains in vogue and its pervasive presence will be felt for a long while to come.
Can we not change the mindset a little bit, enough to enable it to say in effect:
‘I am right, but I can see that you might be right as well."

When we select and place our bet on a particular horse, we are saying we based on our interpretation of the information gathered and received by us. We believe that by reading and interpreting it correctly we have done our homework well and endeavor to predict the outcome of the race correctly on that particular horse to win. It isn't the horse's true chances; it is our interpretation of the information gathered by us. This moves the conflict from the horse's real and true chances to our abilities against the crowd. We are betting the horses on the basis of their probability of winning as per our own handicapping skill.
It is only making good bets and there is no best method, system, theory or strategy and there is no secret formula to handicapping or betting because every race and situation is different. It is a game of choice as well as decision making and as much as we are looking for a probable winner. Choices and decisions making apply to anything and everything we do and usually it is based on our own point of view. The Turf Club makes its money no matter which horse wins and that is why it is called Pari-Mutuel wagering.
