Tim I think what Scuds is trying to say is that the very often you critique a horses performance based upon its odds. This has no relationship in analyzing how a horse ran whatsoever, none. I simply see no correlation in how a horse ran and the odds it went off at. Once a race is over you simply review how each horse ran and critique it. Whether or not Teammate was a good bet that day is a completly seperate argument. Teammate simply refused to try that day for whatever reason.
Very good point by Oracle and Scuds. People often combine a past performance with a horses odds. The two dont have a thing in common. This is why race replays are the best handicapping tool in all of sports.

Now to the Acorn.....Lemons Forver--NOT A CHANCE IN HECK. This horse needs to be in two turn races. The horse should like the track but needs two turns. Bushfire has that extra furlong and I wouldnt touch her at all for the win in this race. Teamate looks good to me. I can forgive her last race. But the horse I am interested in is Joint Effort.
