Charlie's 4th sentence in post #6 here is exactly what the Hat wants us to do when going through a horses pp.

Charlie asked questions of the horse he was evaluating:
Can he win running Ote?

When he runs and wins(or just misses for example) what 1c does he need to do it?

What comfort zone of a lead does he need?

Ok remember that "weird thread" about taking a picture of a horse?? That is the same thing that Charlie is doing when he asked questions of a horse and then use the pp's to get answers.

1) Get a projected pace following Jim's outline in the 5 step approach.

2) Once you have that 1c-2c proj pace move to the 1 horse and start asking questions of the horse in front of you. Prioritize pace lines run against your proj pace or faster. Those are the lines you ask the most questions about.
