Granted the sample size would be smaller but some of these trainers are pretty streaky. I\'d appreciate knowing the win % of Carlos Martin\'s last ten runners.

JB,

A discussion amongst many TG users I know prefer CURRENT trainers stats re last say 15-20 starters.Small sample understood but currently \"hot or cold\" an angle used by many.

That was exactly the idea behind last 90 days. If  trainer has a small string he might just have 5 or 10 starts in 30 days, and a photo one way or the other can really skew the percentages-- so we settled on 90 days.

Why not instead of doing last 90 days, do last 10, 15, or 20 starters? Don\'t worry about the head bob. I prefer to see whether they topped, paired or offed.
