No times in the charts.
Trakus has fractions.

they finally managed to produce hand-timed numbers for the race

they're a few fifths too slow, of course

Why don't those idiots just use what Trakus had?

Hand timing races in 2017!?
What is NYRA, Utica Club? 50 yeas behind the times and that's the way they like it???

Tell about major league racing there again?

People make fun of speed figures, but these things are easy to catch when you know what you are doing. Unfortunately, the people in charge of timing do not.

The error was mine this time, stupid math screw up converting minutes to seconds.

Trakus isn't official timer at NYRA tracks.

Canterbury had two races (the 6th & the 8th) taken off the turf on August 13th.

Equibase at some point; i'm not sure when but it took at least 3 days; finally realized that the races were NOT actually on the turf, but, they still have the unfixed track condition of good instead of fast from the original charts in for both races, unreal.

Trakus still screwing up daily on Woodbine turf. It has only been a couple years, I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon.

Woodbine used to be my #1 track.
Have not looked at it in 2 years and have no plans to bother ever again.
They are just run by people who do not respect their customers. Screw them.

I don't know if this is wrong, or if it has been addressed previously, so bear with me if necessary.

8/4/2017 DelMar 8th Mdn20 3u (f&m)

21.86 45.81 59.17 1:05.46
(23.95) (13.36) (6.29)


If those splits are right, that time between the 2nd and stretch call makes that final 16th look quite quick. The runaway winner set both those fractions, making the 6.29 look like acceleration after 5 furlongs. Very rare for cheap maiden claimers, and a big positive if reality.
