How did you know that the trainer was just a 59 first out, did not see that in the expanded trainer stats numbers? Am I missing that?

Right now, only trainer ratings relevant to today's race are on display.

I will ask the guys in New York about adding the trainers rating with first-time-starters to all 2nd time starters in the future.

There are some trainers who are lousy with first-time starters and great with second time starters.

This horse today was also the only other horse to take a little early action in the Sweet Whiskey maiden race ... and no A. P. Indy first time starter, going for a low-rated debut trainer, is ever going to have a shot at winning a Saratoga 2yo MSW race at 5.5f

Most bettors are turned off by big stretch-outs like that, but with A. P. Indy as the sire, the figures often spike upward by giant margins.

That would be nice, or maybe a color coding for a "angle" so it stands out as a real positive or negative change in number, if a trainer is 90 first and 90 second it really does not mean anything.
