good question, i always look at that angle mainly.
E1 E2 LP SPD
91 100 105 108 Illinois Derby
70 86 104 96 Gotham
When I look at this it is highly unusual because whenever a horse runs such a big improvement in the E1 and E2 numbers, there is usually a decline in the LP number. Why? Because the horse has less leftover for the finish.
That race was a momumental improvment for Cowtown Cat. You normally don't see that kind of jump unless it was a horse claimed by Scott Lake.
Also the Bris pace numbers showed the race to be under par -5 and -8. Figure that one out.
