If a horse ran winning figures of 82, 83, 81 and 59, you wouldn't readjust that 59 based on his figures, and basically ignore the clock, if it also didn't make sense per the also-rans? I know that's...

Denny is trying to make the following point (albeit poorly, in my opinion):

ALL speed figures that are not automated can be viewed as a self-fulfilling prophecy. In other words: Beyer largely...

Maybe this was covered elsewhere in this thread but forget the race: the most compelling aspect of the Pegasus is the admission charges that Gulfstream implemented, and they apparently got it. Seats...

One thing I haven't heard from anyone in this case, which I admit is interesting: Motive? If anything, I think someone would want Songbird to be declared the winner, not Beholder.

Those who think this practice is acceptable because many other tracks do it are correct on that front. But what if ALL tracks did this? What if every single track in the country barred all horses on...

Santa Anita Late Money Friday 4/8 Race 6?

A couple of guys I know that bet Santa Anita swear to me that there was a huge late bet on The Natural, #9 in race 6 on Friday, that he went from 30-1 to 8-1 in one flash. I find it hard to believe....

The Meadowlands is a much better spot due to the existing NJ Transit train stop, which is easily accessible from NYC (currently with a train change in Secaucus, though I wonder if a direct line would...

Much like the game itself, this site needs people who bet with vigor and have an intelligent opinion that can keep him in action. To lose even one would be a shame. I feel this is a bit of a...

I don't understand OneFast, why would that spell the end of racing? Are you saying it's not enough? Wouldn't the profits just be a supplement to the purse accounts?

When you had to handicap off proofs, and you thought the line sucked, was that he day you used Equibase PP's? And what did you use otherwise, when the lines were good?

I like this idea, and was actually going to pitch it to you, but I don't feel like I'll have the time to commit to it at the moment. It would be an interesting exercise, surely. Maybe in a couple of...

Sure, sprints-sprints and routes to routes.

I just looked at Turfway's races today. In seven of the nine races the horse with the best last-out Beyer was favored (too many races with recent turf...

Your contention is that that are many tools. No argument. I think where we disagree is I strongly feel Beyers are the biggest factor in betting. If you and I were to independently make a ML -- me...

I say this as someone who knows what he's looking at after betting horses for 35 years. So I guess you can say I've "validated this by way of (my) own research."

Not sure how long you've been...

Songbird got a 99 Beyer. I believe Behrnik's Bank got a 93 or 94, and this one will probably be low-mid 90's as well. These loose-on-the-lead sprint figures for lightly-raced horses are probably the...
