Just a note: I thought that this little (hopefully fun contest) for a dozen or so of us matchers, along with the graphic I designed above would help me pay tribute and thanks in a small way to The Hat. My success today at this game is down to his theories and teachings, and to the others here at Pace and Cap who keep it all going.

Good choice Mike. That looks a little tough.

It's been some time since I last posted, but, I'd like to contribute something to this thread.

I think the 1 horse, Daredevil, is tough to beat. Yes, Daredevil's best races have been on an off track, but I think despite the layoff the horse is the speed of the speed and all other early horses will be left in its dust. I think with the layoff he has only become stronger and faster.

There is no value in the race, unless you think Daredevil can be beaten. If so, the 2 horse might be worth a look.

But if I had to bet, I'd bet:

#1 Daredevil to win.

This is a very difficult race to match for a beginner. We have 1 . improving 3 yrs old 2. Distance stretch out 3. Horses from different tracks. Look like a race that need to "Adjusted"? per HAT "alternate sprint method". If anyone can work this race and show the adjustment will be great.

See attachment for my matchup. If anyone can show me how to past my work sheet directly into this section without adding an attachment would be greatly appreciated.

I am reading the "RED MANUAL" from page 75 - 86, there are to sample race that is adjusted. The method spoke of is "Alternate Sprint to Route". Hope this help.
