Churchill Race 2
 

The M/L favorite gets scratched anyhow.

Hey Dog
thanx for chiming in man. Appreciate it. I just walked in the door and see that in the 4th race I posted the # 8 was scratched. When I remove him the race variegates now to early and the winning # 2 ( 13.80) is all over the readouts consistently. has that "smoothness" look Hat was talking about.

From Emuv-Uxr-ParA-Ear exdc etc

Funny how he came up when it variegated late and now with the scratch when it switched to early.

long way to go however with 3 races still to run, here are updated shots of the 4th race after scratcing the 8.

Thanx again Dog for weighing in

Result race 8
 

ok Dog. Just popped the winner and cold trifecta in the 8th :)

only 3 horses I had in the machine.

the winning 8 once again has that smoothness look Jimmy talks about.

Churchill Race #2 Alternate Adjust
 

Richie, this proves nothing after the fact, but if I use the alternate (E) adjust for this race the program prefers # 1 Easy Grades over # 5 Master Barry. At the very least one could make a case for boxing 1-3-7 instead of 1-5-7. I think this gves you more smoothness in the readouts.

I took #1's Easy Grades last paceline which was run in a 149.3 for 8.5 furlongs. Naturally using this line makes it very low in Total Energy. Probably what I could have done was go back 5 on this horse instead of the Alternate Adjustment. If one believes that last line was abnormally slow and you think the horse is a contender you could justify going back for a paceline.

Richie, will try to do the 10th race as it looks interesting.

Race 9
 

Dog this is a good head. Just did it again in the 9th man. Winner - cold exacta and just missed the cold triple from the 3 horses listed
Winner once again is everywhere like Jimmy likes to see man.

ok

Churchill Race #2
 

No redboarding intended, but to illustrate why selecting a proper paceline is very important.

Next Screen
 

This is the next screen. Easy Grades using 5th line back really moves up. If you do not like to go back the alternate (e) adjust moves him up also. Don't have to do this with this paceline.

Dog,
may I ask what was your original line choice for the winner there and what was the other line u inputted? Thanx


the # 2 wins the 10th race who I have nowhere on my radar. Still 3 for 4 is good even though 2 were chalky. Gives me enough feedback to continue.

NEVER underestimate the power of INSTINCT and GUT FEEL.

Final Screen
 

Richie, the smoothness you are looking for in the read-outs. The exacta is very gettable. Again not meaning to redboard, but I do like to go over losing races as a learning experience.

This aint redboarding man. u had something up before the race ran and now are doing a post mortem. least thats my opinion anyway

now I have to go look at the # 2 who won the 10th. I made the right call on the Mercedes horse didnt even put a line in for him. where the hell was he going lol

lemme look at the 2

thanx Dog for the feedback!
