Very unusual pace scenario last night. Wind was down the stretch which makes for fast last quarters and slowish first quarters at the Big M. However, the first half vs, last half pace is generally not affected much. But last night we had lots of crawling paces.
As I note on the recap, we are getting better class numbers now for those who use them and within several weeks, we should have very accurate class-strength numbers. The numbers I provide are based on Trackmaster power numbers, but even if you don't use TM, you can compare them to each other at least. Not adding many to my Watch List from last night, but those that are are noted. Here's recap:
