While I know this will annoy some people, I have included the Dosage Profile of all horses and indicated which have an index over 4.00. What I find interesting is that only 3 of the top 10 horses listed with the biggest 'Tommies' have any points in the two 'stamina' wings of their profile. Not really sure how this can be explained. Believe in dosage or not, it still holds true that having at least 1 point in either of the 'stamina' wings is helpful come the first Saturday in May. I realize we seem to be in an era where many rules have been broken lately but my handicapping will not totally ignore this statistic of the past.
