Title: Gotham 2012 -- No Live Ground?
Post by: SoCalMan2 on May 03, 2012, 10:46:25 AM
Maybe this has been covered previously......I have not assiduously covered the goings on here.......If I am reading the sheets correctly, it shows that the Gotham figures were made without live ground.  Is that right?  Was there snow or something blocking the view?  If I am right (i.e. no live ground), does that make Hansen\'s figure a little fuzzy?  I normally make a mental note that jump up figures where there is no live ground need to be viewed with caution.....but I can\'t imagine you made a Derby prep the same way you make other no live ground situations.

The paths shown for Hansen is live ground. Unfortunately, there\'s a glitch in terms of how that race and others for the day retain their status as live ground. We are working to put in new checks to make sure the switch denoting live ground does not change accidentally.

Just watched it on youtube.  A lot of the preps are on there.  Looks like a good call on the ground to me.  If anything I think he was further out than 4w for a lot of it?  HP

I mean on the first turn.  2w looks spot on for 2nd turn.  HP
