My question is:
Do you find it effective to go back 90 or more days with animals as cheap as these?

Hi Froggy,
I don't pay attention to days back. I am sure by doing this it burns me at times.

Hey if you do not mind a little feedback on the "balance" readout. When you get down to FIVE contenders be VERY wary of any horse with a balance of 9 or higher. Something is NOT right with the horse compared to todays computerized matchup.

While everyone selects contenders/lines differently this balance of 9 or higher when reducing contenders to FIVE was a "trigger" to throw the horse out for WIN consideration.

This remained CONSISTENTLY true for over EIGHT years of working the software.

stay cool
Richie
