effort
There was a guideline with the older programs of not entering a
beaten length of over 9 This was because Doc felt that a horse beaten by
more than 9 was not running its best effort and that such lines would alter
the program readouts .
I am doing lots a checking but nothing I can gather conclusively
yet however I have been checking of past derby winners
and I am seeing few from 8.5 lines as most of the grade 1 -2 derby
preps are at 9 furlongs
will investigate further.
