Interesting Example that raises other points

I wonder if there was a little bit of trainer intent with this horse's last race. Warming up for today so to speak.

If you look at the raw 5F time section for this horse in it's last race where it was beaten 6.4L over 5.5F, the 5F element was actually better than it's previous three races & against a faster POR too.

It would be easy to infer that this horse was going off form, but clearly that wasn't the case. I guess the lesson is, look at those internal fractions! Hopefully someone on P&C got this winner.
