Question Dream Race

Hello All. I am working hard at learning the Methodology and the using the Matchup to find contenders. I have a question for anyone that can help.

The "Hat" referenced working on a 'Dream Race' when he said the matchup first "clicked" for him. In the seminar tapes a 'dream race' is frequently mentioned. I'm sure a 'dream race' is explained somewhere in the followups, but I can't find it.

This is probably a silly question, but can someone explain this to me or direct me to an explaination of it and how it is used.

Thanks, Pat C.

Dream race

Hello Pat

In the Sartin Methodology terminology
The dream race is made up from the fastest first second and third fractions
of the contenders in a race Looking at it in feet per second numbers

which ever horse ran the fastest first fraction that horse owns that
fraction and its number would be the
dream race 1st fraction, Lets say that was a 60.37

The fastest 2nd fractin of the horses was 59.30


The fastest 3rd fraction was 55.27

So take those 3 fractions of the fastest fractions in the race
and your dream race would be

60.37 59.30 55.27 and the dream race toal energy would be 174.94

Thanks much. Makes sense to me now. I guess that I have been trying to create a dream race all along in working the matchup, but with raw fractions only. I'll start using FPS in doing this and see if I can improve.
