  1. RJP,
    Hello, I'm Amateurcapper on the TBA blog roll. We've been asked to review your posts. I like some of what I see thus far but here's what I sent to the others. It's meant as constructive criticism...if you give me an opinion, or at least a question, then there can be dialogue.

    RE: The Paddock Lounge...The last few posts have been nothing more than press releases. That info can be gotten on many sites. Liked his Future Wager lists, had Quality Road as one to watch before his breakout performance but no article other than the press release format prior to the race. On 2/21, took a tepid stand against TuP Derby winner Mayor Marv for the SA Derby...would like to see more of that type of opinion. Prior to the race, made a selection and his 1-2 finished 2-1. I'm wanting to see more in the coming weeks. Subtitle reads: "A Cheap Claimer Shares His Thoughts on the Sport of Kings." Right now, not sharing enough unique opinion.
