Finding " lone speeds " is a great idea and something that definitely should be addressed. Perhaps it is part of a bigger " race dynamics " conversation.

I bought his book when he was at Belmont, exclaiming "if you've written this entire book dedicated to the pic 6 play........no, I don't want it!" He laughed, "no, no, its not, trust me."

and trouble trips..what are you really seeing..and of course..trainer intentions....finding bad favs..

I will definitely talk a lot about my opinions on what makes a key race and how I disagree with most people's labeling of such races.

Wouldn't you agree that pre-speed figures the "key races" were the ones that invariably would be a big-fig (for the level) race these days? It's almost like it's an expired idea.

I'd like to hear your opinions on evaluating firsters at various points of maturity (i.e., Saratoga 2YO's vs. GP 3YO's vs. Aqu inner 4YO's.) There's nothing I'm worse at than evaluating potential off workouts.

I appreciate it. I'm just afraid that my run of good opinions on that show will come to an end when I start doing the Youbet shows. I sure hope not.

Since I don't have a Youbet account I just hope you save some of your; "If Circular Quay wins this I'm going to hear for days how he is the greatest thing since sliced bread" comments for the Siro's seminar.
