ability
Not redboading because I did not bet this race
and I only looked at it after I knew the results
But I used phase 1 and for my contenders
and I get the winner in pretty good shape
ranked third
Not saying I'm right and your wrong
I just am going with what Doc often writes about
How 1 off pace line can alter the other contenders in
You have the winner ranked 4th but I question the 2 horse
Your comments ?
Thanks

Hello Bill, great question, let me look and I may have had that one slide through , but actually it was within the last 180 days at this track, and a sprint, though 4.5 is a very short sprint, it was indictive of possible improvement , being 2 yrs old, look for the best line and think of possible improvent, these are 2yr olds , not 4-6yrs old, and they normally can improve a bit every other race, if on the upside, if not then you lose like I did today.
These critters are fickle and hard to pick the right side of their zig or zag, are going to improve or hit the wall, today I saw it boths ways and I guessed wrong both times. Oh well, lose and be happy.
