we had used a running line from 2004.
All I want to know is how the horse is going to perform in today’s match up.

Jim, this brings up a question. Is a race from 2004 going to accurately tell you how a horse is going to perform in TODAY's matchup? Just because he ran a certain way two years ago doesn't mean he will run that way today--or does it? Or is it that you just don't care--a running line is a running line.
I know for me this would be a tough obstacle to overcome. I'd have my doubts about a two-year old line.
Thanks,
Steve
