Good discussion here guys and gals..

As some of you have mentioned, I look for "moves" within a race- that burst of acceleration that may go unnoticed to someone watching just the horses on the front and may go unappreciated if the horse making the move didn't win.

Also, I watch for horses running well against a bias or a single race pace disadvantage- eg, a closer who makes a good move to reach contention in a slowly paced race.

Actually ...

... I didn't share knowledge and experience ... I just made stuff up.

But who can tell the difference?
