His form jump when staying on grass or poly was more significant...he ran around 50s his first 3 then around 80 his next 3. He was running around 80 on turf after his dirt race compared to the low 50s. He improved 15-20 lengths on turf/poly...more than his improvement going from turf to dirt. He showed a significant form increase. I said it can be all explained away by anything. You can pick and choose any numbers that exist to defend any stance you want to take on Eight Belle's improvement.
