Default Kickin TG fig: 14.25 "tu"
For sheet figure fans... KNS received a 14.25 Thoro-Graph fig with a "taken up" notation for her effort Friday at Tampa. It represents a slight improvement from the 15.0 she earned in her KEE start previously.

That is very good, should have more room in improve. She didn't get any help figure wise (as Charles mentioned in a prior thread) being 1w1w the whole time, but I would rather be that then 3w4w and get a TG 9.

Considering that Charles has only had her for a couple of months, I see only blue sky and dark bay horses in the winners' circle

I have to admit, I love that Dee Tee has a turf horse - it's my favorite racing, watching them jockey for position throughout while they set up for their horses run, then the turn for home explodes in a wall of horses across the track,the colors of the silks, the excitement, seeing who will emerge with that awesome speed closing kick. I love the green of the grass, the way the grooms turn them out with the quartering and banged tails ... I think I need a "lifetime trip to England and Ireland" plan

One issue I have with the sheets or TG at smaller tracks like Tampa is that I question the that the information gathered is as precise as with the bigger tracks or that as much time is put into figuring the numbers. There is also the matter of determining the effect of trouble on the final figure. Was it a point? or 3? Not that any of it matters really...

I agree. I don't trust Delaware or Maryland numbers at all. I do trust Arlington numbers 100% as I know the guy that does it, still does it by hand with one of those over sized note cards, he is very sharp IMO

Needing more room? The Colonial downs Secretariat turf course is perfect for that nice late kick.Sweeping wide turns & a long drive home to the wire
