Hi Bob,

Anyhoo? Was that in a Glaswegian accent??!!
I stick solely to US racing.
As far as the UK scene goes I don't bother anymore. I think if sectionals were available across the board that may change my mind, but until then it won't be for me.

I've thought about the possibility of compiling my own sections, but timewise I just couldn't do it, commute to work, kids etc.
Focusing just on the AW would probably make things easier I guess. On the turf, things could be a little more problematic due to the variation in course layout. Clearly a mile at Brighton going over Wilson Avenue is going to be nothing like a straight mile at Newmarket.
That said, some data is way better than no data of course.
Hopefully if Ireland lead the way the UK will follow.

If often wondered about the NH scene too. Although raced at distances way further than the Methodology deals with I'm sure there must be applications, but obviously moved rails when the going is bad could alter the distances covered dramatically.

If you haven't done so yet, check out Tom Brohamer's lecture tapes in the audio section. Solid gold.

Nice one Bob, catch you around here soon.
