Beau-- now you are starting to ask some good questions.

\"Now\"- I like that. I actually, besides all the justifying and promoting, think you guys are GOOD people.

I do believe something was screwed up with the # on BN. But on the whole everything usually checks out.

Presumably, you have looked at the two horses in our RBR by now-- we did have the same horse faster, but by only 2 1/2 points, not the 9 you say Ragozin did. Actually, Beyer got it just about right-- if you take out the ground loss adjustment they would get about the same figure. As I have said before, in general, they do a better job with variants than you-know-who-- they don\'t make the big error due to using unsupportable, rigid assumptions.
