7F quirks
One of the things that I noticed when doing this study was the noticeable demarcation line in the paceline lines of horses that had previously run at both 7 furlongs and less than 7 furlongs. You could observe that there were only a few true 7 furlong horses on the grounds because for many horses their 6f %med numbers would be well within the 6f acceptable range, but as soon as they tried 7 furlongs, they went crazy high, like from say mid to high 69's to well over 70, and as a result, automatic toss outs. I have never previously seen such a marked jump, or slump as the case may be, with a 1 furlong distance change. All of what makes Woodbine such an interesting proposition to bet.
