Otherwise, you have figure out whether the horse is worth doing the work for. #1 New Commission in terms of form did not show much in terms of what he was stepping up into but I take the least amount of energy and grade it into my final algorithm. People argue these points vehemently, every race is an energy distribution, and I find it usually a horse that is long odds because he finish way out of it last race or he stepping up in class and trainer owner are hoping to get a piece of the purse. Energy distribution to me is strictly either horse that goes off as fav. or bet down because on paper his numbers look like he did not use up energy and I find it is the exact opposite. It is like any other figure, I treat sprints totally differently than routes obviously because sprints and energy are used up quicker because horses need to be closer in position..running style prediction is also very important and I also believe energy has to be judged on the pilot..... its up to him to either know or dont know what kind of horse he has going into a race..They hold the reins.

Thanks for the explanation. I believe I better understand your points. I, too, depend a lot on energy distribution.
