I have a couple of questions for you guys...correct me if I'm wrong... #I remember reading in one of our old manuals or in a follow-up that we should only use pace lines that are within an 1/8 mile of todays distance..I've been looking thru my manuals and can't find it. Is this a guideline from one of the older programs only?
Is this guideline being used my most of you ? Sometimes in the derby you might need to use an 8 1/2 F line which is more than 1/8. #2 in follow up #41 page 57 "Doc" writes Never enter more than 9 beaten lengths at any call. The computer will
advantage a horse who gains more than 9 B.L. Again there are horses in this years field who have 11 or 12 B.L. in their last 2 lines...is this also a guideline just for older programs such as Thoromation ...Pace Launcher...Synthesis ??? Comments are welcome from you G 1 guys who are familiar with the older programs....
