Hey, any idea what SWLY's sleep number is?
I use the numbers similar to how one would use Beyers. I think Brown's numbers are more precise and thus superior not to mention the public has beyers but not TG's. Rags are about the same IMO however I'm more familiar and thus comfortable looking at TG's.

From what Chuck has said she may be a zero or neg number for sleep.

10 then a 9 is pretty good considering we had very little ground loss and carried low weights both of which will cause the # to be lower. I think that she can carry 5 lbs more and have it be totally inconsequential but give her a lower # yet.

she also got bumped by the two, ran between, came back at the winner and is still a filly. Just trying to revel in the positives. And Chuck good luck today with T.R.

Chuck, gotta compliment you on her in a different way. EVERY sheet user that I was personally around was tossing her last time, I tell them no, but this was pre-pick six so nobody listened to me, her not bouncing off her huge increase is a great job by you and your staff, and the slight increase is even better. now stop kicking my ass in FB

She's going in the right direction...only getting better and it shows, thanks to Chuck and his crew.

And how low that # could be is the fun, interesting part ...
