Agree with you Joly and Cal I too am swayed wrongfully by the more succesful trainers along with speed figures. Frankly I put a lot emphasis, not always, on early and late pace and success at the track they are running on. Seldom do I look at sire/dame bloodlines unless I'm totally "Dazed and Confused" (Led Zeppelin) by my other criteria. But when you see Chad, Brad, Steve or Tod and Bob, it's hard not to give a first look . . . oh and then there's the jockeys and the . . . . . . I'll also dmit when I'm to lazy or it's oo late to run thu thr PP's I have won some contests just picking from the DRF entries.
