Well, congrats to Barb Minshall who refuses to let a horse bounce, for her superb job in the TPA 10th..congrats to you and Sammy.  A 9 pt jump without a bounce is HOF work, see you at the spa for the induction.

And also to Robertino Diodoro who just whipped Mr. Cox as the 3/5 fav by oh....about 15 lengths.  The thoro-pattern of 1 7 20 has recently won 3 races, and after I believe handicapping over a thousand races easily since I started paying great attention to this - it was exactly # 5 for me losing to a horse with this pattern.  3 in the last month.  5 in the last 5 years.  Although to be fair, at SAR one summer I found one pattern different on the normal product than was on thoro-quick.  It had the winner exactly ONE time in 5 years till lately.

racmygame: What did you mean when you said The thoro pattern  1 7 20 has won 3 times?

   What does the 1 7 20 mean?

           Bob

shanahan: THE TOP / PAIR / OFF / X

1 / 7  /20 / 82

OR ANYTHING LESS THAN THE FIRST 3 % =  <30

johnnym: How do you keep track of all that data?

shanahan: I don’t.  It’s there on the sheets.

johnnym: I understand that part

You started this  by saying this particular pattern has recently won 3 races.

That’s the part I compliment you on, being able to keep track of the amount of wins from this pattern.
