I have decided to share some of the spot plays that I use over the course of the next year. I will start with maiden claimers.
The play is for any maiden claimer and is simply the horse with the lowest morning line that has had a race over the track that it is running on today.
The cap for the morning line is 6-1.
This works best if there is only a single qualifier, but the percentage only drops a little with multiples. Target odds should be 3-1 and over, no cap for final odds. If the odds are lower you may want to look for an exotic play would offer better opportunities, or simply pass the race.
