[Lt1]

I decided to run 1 more survey on how horses outside of the maximum range at the 2c call fared. The range for each dist & surface was established by me during the first survey taken. The tracks involved were Sar,Mth,Parx,Del,and TDN. This gave me a good mix of tracks ranging form the top[SAR]to the lowest level [TDN] Here are the results.

100 14 11 16 59
So after a total of 400 horses only 44[11%] have managed to overcome too many lengths behind at the 2nd call. As stated before this is based on my contender and paceline selections. I am aware of Docs opinions in FU 80 but to me any factor that helps eliminate a contender from win consideration 89% of the time is worth revisiting. I have been employing this procedure since I posted the first survey and I am very comfortable doing so. One other thing I like to point out is that those who rely on VD/C Numbers should reread FU#81 P1. The Doc reminds us that the numbers under the VD/C column are to be considered same as the tier rankings on the BL/BL screen[horizontal tiers] not ranks. He further points out the final wagering should not be made on the basis of the numbers but by final odds[another way of saying wager capping]. Some may not feel comfortable with this but it
will get the higher paying horses. Since I move horses up and down the tier levels any way I have no problem wagering on a 3rd or 4th tiered horse listed by RDSS. As always ,if one is not winning now, then one should run some test and keep records to see if this procedure will align with your comfort zone while increasing your profits.
