9th Race Mountaineer………….
Sorry I didn't get this up before the race but it caught me completely by surprise after most of tonight's races being low priced favorites with the exception of the 5th race which I managed to miss.

Here the 8 is third tier and the 9 is fourth tier. From here I check three other numbers to make my selection. The are Entropy, Acceleration, and Deceleration. Below is the Accel-Decel picks.

I wasn't able to get the summary sheet here so I listed the raw numbers below. I don't use the ranking since they aren't accurate.
Using the hard numbers the 8 leads with a 55.2 Acceleration and 93.5 Deceleration number. The 8 had a 2 ranking Entropy. Again using the hard numbers the 9 is second with a rating of 54.9 and 92.5.

And here I was about to complain to my good friend David about the low priced horses coming in at Mountaineer. Now I can only thank him for the recommendation.
