It\'s an art, not a science. Watch the race, look at splits. TG is based on final times and ground loss. You can\'t quantify the details of every circumstance. Hence the T, op-, slw, etc indicators. It wasn\'t hard to give the the horse extra credit for his last performance.

I haven\'t finished your post yet but to answer your first question about red boarding, what I meant was the points you made were all post race analysis.

Well it\'s unfortunate you tossed him because you put a lot more effort into analizing his number than I did. As it turned out, you were on to something. You must be madder than I am?

We\'re all mad Jerry. We\'re all trying to beat an unbeatable game. It\'s the girl you\'re madly in love with----but she\'s all wrong for you.


Good Luck,
Joe B

You should have seen Art Sherman\'s face right after the race...

I love the game as an owner and gambler. I have been a more successful owner than gambler. I go back a time in racing. The first horse I admired was Judge Angelucci winning The Californian and trained by Charlie. I was fortunate to win that race a few years later and a some other important races. I love and respect racing.

This is not a handicapping comment but we are in what I believe will be a brief \"golden age\" of racing when people look back say 10 years from now. Chrome, Frosted, Arrogate, Songbird, Beholder, Flintshire, Masochistic, and a few others. All I can say is -- wow -- and enjoy -- I will.
