Kentucky Derby / Energy!

[Houndog]

First I ran the horses through PHASE1 to get a feel for the relative abilities of the horses. Rounded off for TPR

Brother Derek 87/95 183
Lawyer Ron 91/79 170
Barbaro 86/91 177
Bob and John 90/79 169
Sinister Minister 95/85 180
A.P. Warrior 86/92 178
Sweetnorthernsaint 80/98 178
Sharp Humor 87/90 177
Steppenwolfer 85/82 167
Point Determined 84/96 179

I used TPR as prescribed in the Sartin, Schmidt, Hambleton book adjusting up or down from an average variant of 17 dividing by 2 than putting .60 adjustment for EPR and .40 adjustment for LPR. Initially I entered these horses in the Energy Generator and scratched by TOTAL ENERGY and also considered the TPR ratings above. I did not project and used all 9 furlong lines for my eventual contenders.
