There's definitely a place for DO's Longshots thread. It's a racing forum, and it would quickly die a death if all anyone ever did was put up sub-5/2 shots.

Clearly some of his selections are haymakers based on a hunch, but I don't see anything illegitimate about that approach. I have the occasional lunge myself, but they're hardly my core bets, and I suspect the same applies with DO.

That thread has landed its share pf punches over time, and I think the criticism is a bit unfair, to be honest.
