And the reason why is because GP only carded one two-turn dirt route - and to make matters much worse you had very heavy wind on the day.

By the way, if I make an adjustment for the mile races' times based on the no runup, I match Drugs' 106.

How are your figures matching up with what they publish for Santa Anita?

Sniper's right, I don't waste my time there. Actually my database is really behind because I've hardly played anything in the last 6 months thanks to the economy. Going to get it up and running for Keeneland and Churchill.

So are you taking the same approach as others in the thread regarding using poly horses in the Derby?

Yup... until they prove themselves otherwise. So far they're 0-fer hitting the board in the Derby, Preakness, and Belmont.
