Any guesses on Assertive Style\'s number?

Don\'t know what to do with this one.

I was going to play against world today..Generazo was going to really pressure him with pure sensation to set up disco partner.  
Thunder Snow surprising because he was working great but race came up real tough

Another bad dq.  Nobody should have come down there.  Why jocks put themselves at the mercy of the stewards I don\'t know.  The horse is going to win stop whipping right handed.

First drift in didn\'t bother anyone.  The second drift in the horse was already clear and affected nothing.  Jock deserves an Emmy for that performance.  His reaction was completely out of whack for what was happening in front of him.

4500/month is about right but all depends on where you are running and what percentage the trainer is running at. NY will run you more.  Going with K. Mac will run you more.  But as an average 4500 is about right.  PM me if you would like as I went through this headache in the beginning also when I started claiming.

They need to change those old speakers.  No clue what is being said, everything sounds garbled.  Nothing more frustrating than someone telling me Maggie gave out a longshot but I could not hear what she was saying.  Another reason why I normally stay home.  Agreed though, those speakers were cranked up all day long to headache levels.

Ask the Experts / wind effect?
January 26, 2017, 07:29:12 PM
Hi all,

Is there any info here on the wind effect on races?  Strong winds the past couple of days in the north east and south Florida on Sunday made me wonder if there is anywhere to see that in the TG sheets.  I know it is built into the number but how does that work and how do I know if a race was run in the wind?  While we\'re at it, is there a way to find out if there is a gold rail in TG the way there is an indicator of a dead rail with an X ? NY has had a bunch of gold rails recently. So need to know if that can be seen next time the horses run back.

Is there a reason why Gustavo is named as the trainer as opposed to Rudy?

I\'m trying to view a sheets order I made on 4/7 but I can\'t figure out how to download it from previously purchased.  Is it available?  I can pull up the the order but I can\'t choose it to download.
