Just a heads up guys.

Delta's 6.5/7/7.5/8/8.5 races are ALL around 2 turns.

KEY is the routes start from this long ass chute and the first fractions on them are FASTER than the sprint counterparts ok? Like really fast.

Check a few cards of races if you play there and you will see it.

Worth noting on your work is to see if OTHER tracks 2 turn route times project accurately to today's Delta sprint distances of 6.5/7 and 7.5f. Remember in a way you ARE comparing apples to apples in this situation (the 2 turn configurations).

Re:Other tracks

On the tapes, Hat says, Match shipper against shipper and Cheap horses win at Cheap tracks, also, speedfigures can help in telling you if a horse will be competitive in todays race - Look at #1 does his SF say competitive???

But only way to really get to know what's what, is Practice, Practice and more Practice
