Hi Bill, Mitch and Tim!
Sorry for the delay responding, family first and all that, especially when you’ve got a high maintenance daughter!
Thanks for the break down everyone. You are all absolutely right. The result could easily be explained with basic Methodology and the race went exactly as you said. It may very well be that the late addition of Lasix had zero impact on the result.
The 10 horse took no prisoners as it left the gate. Over a further 0.5F it may very well have been a different result with the 6 closing like a train. Additionally, the base data was from AP which is somewhere that I have never looked at. Whether or not AP suited the 6’s running style better or not I have no idea.
It was with the way the paddock announcer made reference to the Lasix that got me thinking. I’ll be honest and have to admit that I’d never checked to see how many were running on Lasix and actually assumed LB meant leg bandages not Lasix and Bute!!!
You live and learn…..
