H.A.N.A. Mnr 2nd race

Bill, the #2 adjustment was only for legitimate contenders, not the entire field. Look at that energy spread. I'm fairly certain using the #2 adjustment would be wrong in this case. Don't you agree?

Hi David

Yes I do. I will not enter a horse into Kgen unless I feel the horse is a contender. I pick my lines based on guidelines from the follow up
and manuals pertenant to the time of these programs.
Therefore when I am notified of the possiblity of the need for the 2 adjust
I always will use it. In my last 7 races using KGEN I have been asked
if I wanted to use the 2 adjust in 6 of those races I have used it and the winner was on the correct kgrah
(based on the first preplay screen) 5 times. I feel my contender and pace line skills are fine so I will use the 2 adjust when I have to

Now in this case I strickly was following FTL's request to enter his lines into
a software.

I was asked If I wanted to use the 2 adjust and I agreed
This is all base on FTL's lines

Thanks.

Thanks Mike, I understand matching. I guess I misread your post.

Thanks Bill. To me, this remains interesting. The difference is that you used the last line for the #5 horse and did not include the #1 and #7 horses. As a result, you get the EXDC screen first rather than the SP screen.

It seems to me, that although the total energy for the #1 and #7 horses is low, they are the pacemakers in this race as shown in the SP screen you first did for me. Also on that screen, the MP for the #2 horse shows it next to last. In fact, in the last race the #1 and #7 ran together and alternated the lead through the first two calls. By eliminating the #1 and #7, the #2 shows a clear lead (by default) on the EXDC and also as the winner, but my thought would be that this cannot be true with the #1 and #7 horses in the race.

Although you may throw out the #1 and #7 from the 'win' for having low total energy, they clearly effect the pace of the race AND the outcome as you have shown.
