Bob, by #5 horse, I'm sure you mean the
#6 horse I Love to Say Yes.
My reasoning on the
#3 for using a recent sprint line (line 2)over an older route line (e.g. line 7) is that I tried both (top 2 TE and Perceptor) and each resulted in the same BL/BL rank position (rank 5), so I left it at the last one I tried, and a more recent one. Could have used either, but you're right, displaying the recent sprint looked confusing.
My reasoning on going back for the
#6 horse was that it looked sort of fit, returning after 7 days and closed in its last race, and using any of the recent sprints was not going to do it any favours on BL/BL (too low TE). I wanted to rate it off a route so as to minimize the distance adjustments and
fun-with-numbers potential.
