you had a lightly raced horse bred for the distance (3 on helm) with a 4-5 length advantage on bris speed. i have a hard time believing you'd pass such a play if the advantage was on your own figures whether the horse was first off the claim or not. maybe i'm wrong? my point was that the
larger figure errors that can seriously influence bets are usually made by bris.
