BLBL as a whole has the Nyq- Exag tandem reversed

Phase 1 is velocity based so Nyq will always be ahead of Exag

VDC is Velocity relative to Deceleration so since Ex decelerated less it gets a better VDC

Hello Bill,

I appreciated your time to address my questions...

I have never needed to look or depended on one specific readout or one screen in any of the Sartin programs. I have learned through many years of frustrations of "lost races and lost wagers" that it was never one "magic black box".....


I have learned to identify who is the "ratio" horse or the "high energy" horse and who is the "sort" horse or the "entropy" horse. "Ying and Yang" as Howard alluded to with so many other "esoteric" terms in his writings.

Deceleration and its use was proficiently presented by Bruce Jorgensen of the Pacific Northwest where it only rains 365 days a year by using a simple "deceleration par" software by Sartin.

I only questioned V/DC readout of the Derby race since I know wholeheartedly who ran the better race between Nyquist and Exaggerator in the Derby. It seemed that it gave a lot more "undue" credit to "deceleration" over energy expenditure. But you cleared up the issue quite succinctly, Bill...thank you.

I hope I didn't come across "acrimoniously"....oops
