My crazy thoughts

Good point Mark

Is this the same horse ?

Lets say Orb runs in the Haskel at Monmouth
What pace line should we use ?
We already know that its Florida Derby line did not rate Orb very wellin the Kentucky Derby.
Those who went back 1 more race did get better readout. More on that later.

We are warned by Doc never use the Kentucky Derby line.
Orb's Preakness line in not a good effort.
Is the 12.0 Belmont stakes comparable to any other race?

So which line do we use ?
Is Orb really the same horse as he was 5 lines back, the G2400
race at GP. Is Orb the same horse today he was back then?
What would today's Orb do against the field he faced on Feb 13th ?
Hasn't he grown and matured ?
Something to consider when thinking about going back very far in a PP
