Hello all,
I have a question about the last figure for Slumber Party in the Beaumont Stakes at Keeneland. It looks like she bounced off of her debut fig, but digging into the race - the Beaumont is run at the Beard Course distance of 7 furlongs and 184 feet (equibase says abt 7 furlongs). The TG sheet just says the race distance is 7 furlongs.
Is there any chance you guys calculated the fig using 7 furlongs for the distance rather than the extra 184 feet? I think this affects Almafi Princess earlier on the Oaks day card as well. It would seem that their fig would be faster if calculated based on a slightly longer distance?
Or is the number 100% correct?
Thanks for all you do. Love this time of year!
It’s too late at night to do the math but 184 feet would be something like 13 points. Pretty sure I would have noticed.
We don’t mark about distances as such.
Excellent! Thank you for the swift response.
