Steve,

Thanks for the reply, I appreciate the pointer.

I thought a little about the turf to dirt angle, but felt like there was too far for her to step up. Now that I have an Xpress bet account, I tend to rely on the Equibase figures mostly, and often use Brisnet as well, with the occasional Thorograph.

Do you have a general guideline you tend to use to say how much of a bump a horse can get going first to dirt or first to turf? A 5 to 10% increase over what their pattern might otherwise lead to?

Thanks again, have a great weekend At the Races!
