Regarding layoffs, this game has become a layoff game, you just can't 'toss' horses anymore the way you used to be able to because trainers don't race them into shape anymore. I do the same thing all the time. "Oh, this horse can't win off that long of a layoff" and boom, wins by 4

Great Hunter beats Stormello
Stormello beats NoBiz

Conclusion? Nobiz is better than Great Hunter.

Huh?

Come on Jim, just because he lost, doesn't mean he stopped being unbeatable.
