Jake gave Adare Manor the same figure as the Whitney winner. There is zero chance that’s correct. The first three all ran better than she did.

On YouTube, I saw an explanation of their #\'s in general. I read that their # defines a horse\'s ability (both physical and mental). That may explain a lot of their differences. I don\'t think anyone else is measuring mental.

With rain, heavy at times expected Thursday, Friday, and Saturday what will NYRA do with all the Graded Stakes races scheduled? Does anyone know if they have a contingency plan? Oh wait, it\'s NYRA they can\'t think that far out.

Yeah, their numbers are accurate to within a few IQ points.

Sorry to break up the Yuk fest. I enjoy a good laugh and sometimes try too hard to get one.

Tavasco - can you give attribution for your statement? I am kinda busy right now, don\'t want to pull up You Tube and verify. Just tell me who said it. The mental thing.

I have a long history with The Sheets, and while I have not been a particularly successful player, I never put the blame for losing on the figures.

In the absence of attribution, I will call this Fake News.

If I am wrong, I will try to scrape together an apology.

I wasted some time looking at this .  All I could find was a reference to \'MENTAL ADJUSTMENTS\'  to the figures.

If they’re doing anything with the mental states of the horses they’ve gone even further downhill than I thought since I left there years ago. Highly unlikely.

And anyway, that’s the least of their problems.

Meanwhile, on Earth, I ended up breaking out the 2yo filly stake at Saratoga Sunday and giving the winner a big number. It was the last dirt race of the day, and it was either do that or give all the rest of them just terrible numbers, in a stake. We’ll watch what they all do coming back. (Not the winner, she could run anything off that).

Hello Jerry,

Your repeated attacks against your former employer deserve analysis I am unqualified for. Some help here (lol)?

Look, you have won. Why don\'t you declare victory? You took the closest friend of mine and won him over. He is a customer of yours. Why do you feel the need to further berate the competition? Is this an ego thing?

I think the Sheets are superior. Why not let me hand you my money? Is the game still pari-mutuel? Is the horse you are beating dead yet? The drumbeat is boring.

I love your bulletin board versus what happens over there. But if you are going to call me an idiot - I will argue.

When I saw Defunded ran six straight 1\'s, I knew not much had changed.

Your friend, Gary

The points I make are backed up with evidence and critical analysis, not name calling. I continue because when I take away enough players they will be forced to shut down, giving me a bunch of revenue without taking on much new expense. Pretty straightforward, and not personal. I like the guy who owns them now.

Their figured seem inaccurate. Based on their website, info(or lack of), and others things it seems like they don\'t care. I\'d think they try hard to make their product better but I see no effort doing that.

Okay brother.

You post a link I cannot click on and leave it at that. Instead of answering yhe question.

Coward.

Rich Curtis

Check the company that made the video, and check the date. This is all nonsense.

Good thing this forum doesn’t get numbers based on our mental performance.
I would guess plenty of Xs with an occasional pair.
