Rubber stamping implies making no effort to understand what happened by watching the race and looking at the competition. That's not what I am doing. I am simply not just rubber stamping the downgrade like many people do because I know that soft trips don't always translate into higher figures and bigger winning margins like some people think. Prior races help clarify what kind of horse you are actually dealing with and whether it needs a soft trip to run its best figures or has the reserves to engage a bit and still run its race.
