Ok Guys...

I'll start a Match Up Beginners class. I will not be able to have races posted
until I start go back to the track. Use races that are posted to learn the
early steps.

I. Learn to identify the running style of horses., the running style
is essential in learning the Match Up The three styles were names E, P,
S's.

E -- are horses whose past performance shows that they are
early pace horses. Their position at the first call identifies
their early running style. These horse’s run wire-to-wire.

P--are tactical runners that press the early pace. This running
style is where the horse has an up close position at the first
call, and is up close or in the lead at the second call.
Pressers either run in the second or third position..

S -- are horses that come from off the pace. They are horses
that win from way back, and are horses running behind the
pressers. They are late runners that win when the early runners
have exerted their energy.

The jast two running styles are Other Than Early. This used to decide
how today's race will set-up. Early, or Other Than Early.
