Is Rachel really tailing off? Question for TGJB
« Reply #31 on: August 04, 2009, 10:55:52 PM »
TGJB,

 Rachel bounces to a 0 on short rest from the neg 4,but comes back 5+ weeks rest
later and runs the neg 1.5.Now,I\'m not asking for the fig,but if she had run a
neg 3 in her last off 5 weeks,what is the possibility in 5 weeks she returns
to the neg 4?

respectfully,
mjs

Flight-- there are too many hypotheticals in there for me to answer. Haven\'t done the Haskell yet, but my guess given the beaten lengths and ground is that she got back to her neg 4.

I may have robbed Rachel in the Mother Goose, too. It was an impossible figure to do-- 3 horse field, big margins which meant nobody was driven to the wire, two of them stopping after a fast pace, and running figures well off their tops. Last dirt race of the day, two grass races right in front of it-- 90 minutes between dirt races. I took a conservative route (effectively using average track speed for the day), but it easily could have been a couple of points faster. We\'ll never know.
