Just like the game itself, the language of racing evolves with time.
I'm seeing something new in the comment line. AIM.
I'm not quite sure what the M represents but the Angled In part is enough.
Any thoughts, explanations or contributions on this?

Harness or Thoroughbred or Quarterhorse?

Never seen it. Do you have the full comment line?
I'd like to see it....

Angled in midturn?

On second thought, aim means aim.
The horse was in a stalking position with dead aim on the leader.
It's not an acronym

aim is used at Charles Town. Here's an example. Any ideas?

To me, "chased aim weakened" would mean that the horse chased the leaders and was taking aim at them (which I would construe as being favorably positioned and starting, or at least appearing to be ready, to make a move for the lead) but then could not sustain that effort. "Aim" would not be an acronym of any type.

What I would do if I couldn't figure out a comment is to look at the full result chart, since all comments are taken from the chart.

Here it is, from the charts.....

Two things about EB.....
1. They call Charlestown CHA, not CT......hello? Morons.
2. There are no charts for CT on this date - had to go to BRIS.

I think "bid, hung, outside" would have been a better choice of words.

What KidCapper said.

"Early move, wilted."

"Not enough."

But then there's "Prevailed in long hard drive."

cullling the wheat from chaff in the comment line is quite difficult.
I know how to do it but it will never be easy.
If this is not the subject, take it as a case in proving the point.
