Saturday - 9/23 - Races of Interest

[The Pook]

I have been looking for races with absolutely no 1st's at the first call anywhere in the PP's for any horse. Maybe too stringent. Last Saturday your race had a horse with an ancient 1st call and that worked in a paceless way.

Here is how I would approach the no pace Delaware 2 on Saturday. Kind of a hybrid thing. Narrow the contenders and select pacelines:



Could only throw the 1 out.



Don't try to project the pace. Let RDSS show who may be in front at the first call.



From this screen:





From what Jim wrote about these paceless horses toss out the two in front who are closely matched - the 2 and 4.



Of the remaining, which look to be in their positional comfort zone in a winning race? Looks like the 3,5 to me. 6 wouldn't be out of the question.
As confirmed by these screens:





So at this point using RDSS tools and the Matchup approach to a paceless race we are on the 3,5. I think. Anybody chime in with their thoughts. Would you try to project the pace?
