Hard to justify that....remember, Monarchos got a -75, by far the highest in the last 10 years. Dr Roman takes more factors into consideration than Beyer, you can read about his methodology at his site.

I have read all about them. I wouldn't just say what I did without having a clue what I was talking about. Monarchos got a high number because despite being far back, the pace was extremely fast for that running.

Sincerely,

Dr. Cmorioles

Why, you have a problem with assimilating on these forums?

I use his numbers cause they work for me not cause he has a PhD, I refer to him as Dr Roman cause that's his academic title and it's traditional to do so. Geez! I had no idea whether you were familiar with his methodology as your comment was general in nature. Regarding Monarchos, he got his huge number for running a huge race but my point was that he was a closer...this in response to your post saying Roman's system was unfair to closers. (see...no Dr there).

sorry, I was goofing around with CJ who happens to be a friend of mine, and no I dont know much about the figures as I stated when I referenced Beyer. Now I am sure CJ does as he also stated.

I was joking about the Dr. thing because of TFMs post, nothing more.

I have had conversations with Dr. Roman, albeit a few years ago, and he seems like a great guy. I was just giving my opinion of the numbers, that is all.
