I've seen gray, brown, chestnut and dark brown horses all win races. I determine colors to be meaningless.

If nothing else, you all are good for a laugh.
Look, all things being equal, a horse on the inside has a shorter path to run. I do realize this. But how often are all things equal? Horses down on the inside may not lose the same ground on turns that horses that go wide do but they often encounter different problems that have a way of evening things out. A horse down on the inside may have to check or steady and lose some lengths there. A horse on the inside may be running on a heavier part of the track. There are many different things that happen in a race that have a way of evening things out and in my opinion, being three wide is not as big a deal as most people make it. It's not ideal but it's not the kiss of death either. How much ground is lost by going five wide on the turn at Churchill as opposed to three wide? A lot of people also don't realize that it varies from track to track. Being five wide at Belmont is not the same as being five wide at Santa Anita because of the track layouts. I just think it's overblown. But hey, whatever works for you is fine.

how bout this, would you rather have your horse running two wide with horses inside and outside of him, or four wide with only horses inside of him? I have noticed over almost 30 years of horse ownership and watching races the horse running in between horses almost always do not give there best efforts and in fact if you notice a horse making his best move while between horses he will almost invariably improve in his next start all being equal.
