[Because I Can Jim]

Thanks for that Bill.

Now I have a better understanding of your perspective which will help me in the future.

And I agree that horse 1 is not be a choice for win which you said in your video that you look are selecting to to win.

The thought occurred to me that due to our use of the English language, what we try to convey can oftentimes me misconstrued. (That is why I hope no one takes any offense to what I say or write. I am only presenting in everyone's best interest.)

For example, we use the word "contenders" freely in our explanations. Yet, what does that really mean? When I talk about my "top 5 contenders" does that mean for win only or deos that mean from the other side of the spectrum to mean horses that are going to hit the board or somewhere in between such as I'm selecting contenders to win but have a chance to hit the board?

This is made all the more complicated by having contra-horses who have a chance to win and if they don't are most likely to place, etc...

And this applied to my understanding of what you tried to convey about your paceline selection and how it is most likely going to run today.

Thanks for that explanation.

Jim
