TG--The number is right to the degree one can come up under the circumstances--rain, changing track speed during the card, a 4 horse filed, super-slow pace. I took off a lot more from that race than the surrounding races, but I couldn\'t in good conscience take off more. There is a reason High Star was 3/5--the others weren\'t that good.
You are free to make a handicapping decision that the pace made it impossible to run faster--your call.
