Thanks Justin:

With my overall record being considered a pace expert seems a long ways off. I am striving to get my selections more centered and consistent, so all help is appreciated. My questions are coming from my interpretation of what I understood from Jim's writings, so the more you post the quicker it will sink in. Keep it coming as you have the ability to post.

In talking with one other member of this forum some time back he advocated (paraphrasing here) using the best of any races run in the last 30 days and using the last line when there was only one race in the past 30 days, but not if that one line represented the horse's worst past performance. Other than that little bit of latitude his method of line selection is much like yours.

Continued success,

Bill L
