This horse is the subject of a posted race
from 11/15
I think its important to show something about figure handicaaping
This horse was ranked third on BLBL
it was 80/1. line 3 the 8.0 route line was selected
yet the horse had 2 sprint races one of them was a win +
The winner of the race was ranked 4th on BLBL #14
Line 5 was used
Now I ask this question, is it possible that the horse rated third
because of the route to sprint adjustments ?
just rating this horse against itself we see the route line
rated over the 2 sprint lines one of which was a win
So is it possibly the reason it rates so well against the field ?
If the theroy of using a route line in a sprint race
says make sure the router will be close at the second call
and has shown success at a sprint in the past.
Well it has won as a sprinter, Why not use that line?
Will it be close at the call against todays runners ?
Not againt the other pacelines chosen.
It will be 14 back at the first fraction It will make a move
in the second fraction but still be back by 6.8
on top of that will it have enough time in the third fraction
( in a sprint ) to pass the 5 9 and 12 who all have better 3rd fractions
What is the excuse for race 1 Is a 5.5 sprint on poly any more non
comparable than a 8.0 route or a 6.0 mud line ?
Anyway the 1 was ranked third. This why when people read
in the follow ups about the third ranked horses being the best value.
Just make sure your third ranked horse are contenders
and use care when entering a route line into a sprint race
