Look, Andy Beyer is sour grapes because he knows my good friend, Ashok Sinha called his bluff and disproved his precious Beyer rating system way back in 2002. The individuals who pro-rate the roughly 8 point discrepancy are printing money, ...esp. in the P-6 sequence where overlays are routine at Eastern tracks. Case in point: Sarava's 99 Beyer prior to the Belmont was in actuality a 107, that's correct, must adjust figures of horses going from G3 to G1 because serious flaw in Beyer's methodology is he penalizes class and over-rewards sprinters/raw final times. Finally, he never accounts for runaway winners at lower levels, eg - Grade 3, where Sarava was a 12-length runaway winner in his prep for the 2002 Belmont. I am glad Beyer does not have a clue............. we cashed a $142 horse in the 2002 Belmont, and the exacta w 16-1 MDO as an added bonus or ancillary benefit. How does my downgrading Andy Beyer to junk bond status........... relate to Zenyatta, well it doesn't.................... but the bottom line is the guy is routinely wrong more than he is right. Where is his MBA, PhD or degree in advanced Math?? What qualifies or his rating system as gospel? Hmmm, exactly. I freely admit I am a Zenyatta Fan, even though I needed Gio Ponti for a P5 in last year's Breeders Cup Classic, i had to play Gio Ponti because as usual, Beyer lowballed his figures. Zenyatta has never lost, can Andy Beyer say the same? I think NOT. -MT
