Stats are basically facts that happened and can't be refuted - which is why I use them on a board to support opinions and observations.

I don't even waste my time that often talking about trips .. because people aren't using the same tools as I am in order to - imo - properly watch a race.

Basically just my completed raw pace and final figures for that day combined with a review of the pp's and the days result charts ... but yeah, ... I don't like to discuss them a lot because the way I watch races is influenced by those things.

DrugS, did you look at field size? I would bet that on Poly you have smaller fields along with less winning favorites; which would only serve to support your point that Poly is a totally different creature.
