The "Shilee" horse

[RichieP]

the 7 who went off as even money fav

can someone please explain that to me??? are they serious??

the 9 horse.

ok I hope this makes sense. This horse if u look at 2 back pace of race beats the 8 . HOWEVER what I am learning is that the horse is gonna show basically the same style - SUSTAINED against almost any pace it faces ok?

so while it looks great on paper the reality very well might be he is gonna have this position even against slower pace.

so if u look for a line closest to todays pace say line 4 which has BOTH a 23.4 first quarter and a 2c somewhat in the ballpark of the 8 when matching line for line against the 8 you see the 8 KILLS him off ok?

This is one of the biggest things I am learning recently - to let my mind "see" that horses like this are going to assume comfortable places in the pack based on their style and that will be against paces of all different types.
This is BIG as it explains a lot of things that confused the hell out of me.

This horse btw ran 2nd to the 8 Shilee

the result chart of the race

Matchup heaven

ALL of this makes a lot more sense when we begin anaysis of the race at the FIRST call.

1) Running styles

2) "reactions" to various paces

3) ability to "fight"

4) ability to identify these " suck along" horses who really just follow whatever pace is being set while having a ZERO impact on the race itself.

while everyone is busy "looking right" on the pp line ( speed ratings,variants, finish position etc)
a change of focus to "looking left" ( 1c,break, style etc) might bring some added profits man. VERY few are doing this. NOT " in vogue".

ok

safe day
