Polambi,
Those coloured squared next to final time co-relate with
Pace of Race. If you display the
Velocity screen (PoR view), or the
Adjusted screen for the horse, you will see similar rankings for those races. The horse did nothing against that pace of race, and I would never use the 2nd line, rather I would use the 1st line (recency, made a move against the pace, finished in top half, odds 3.4 -1 - class of race more its style).
I recommend that you ignore those Pace of Race markers (actually, turn them off in your Configure screen: uncheck 'Show Paceline indicator'). They were an experiment which has been superseded, and I have eliminated them in RDSS 2.0. Instead, use
Perceptor Total on the Primary screen as a gauge of paceline strength (e.g. best of last 3 comparable distance structure and surface).
Here is the race, and results:
If ever a race begged to be passed, it is this one! Young horses with dissimilar pacelines to today (short sprints, or routes), several recent maidens trying N2L conditions, a standout favourite ...
BTW - please
don't make it your last question about paceline selection! Questions in contest of a race are the best kind. Sometimes questions can get too hypothetical.
Good luck with the rest of the CT card tonight!
