So I decided to run another 100 race survey on the Key Horse angle developed by Richie Mathie. To refresh folks memory a key horse is one the ranked ranked 1-,1,or 2-1 either on the VDC CSR side or the BPP PL side. Here are some screen shots showing examples.
in shot 1 the #2 is the key horse, in shot 2 the 2 & 13 are key horses, in show 3 the 4 & 5 are key horses Now for the survey. The track involved were Parx,MTH,LRL,,TDN, & WO
100 horses

places 26 horse completed the ex 56% of the time and the tri 73% of the time. For P3 ,4,5,&6 players the key horse won 30% of the time. In my prior 300 horse survey the key horse won 83 times ,placed 64,showed 45mran out 108 So after 400 races the key horse
