The Contentious Front End
Who will lead this one? It looks like we have multiple leaders and probably a late race. Where do we look for our winner? Because we have multiple leaders, we look to the “horsey” graphs (the right side) to decide who we will bet. The horses we will look at are the 11,8,4,10. Note that the 10 is an E6 and his first fraction says he can get the lead.
Our BL/BL scree tells us that 2 of our 4 horses are too slow. We can’t bet the 4 or the 8 for win. They are outside our top 5 CSR rated horses. We bet the 10 and the 11 for the win. The 9 is a bit of a stretch but you can see that he is a presser who gets into position to win but may be a bit far back in the first fraction. He does have the speed to win he is just too far back. I did not bet him for the place in my exacta bet.
Please note how the 9,4,10,3 are running to their preferred style in the first fraction and have the speed to get to where they want to be. The Show horse the 5 is a layoff horse that I threw out but he did have back class. I probably made a mistake with him. But we do get paid well for the win.
