Silver Charm

Turf Mile - like Kip D. the 2 hole is huge, and last is better than it looks. save with the filly.

Nice call Michael. Kip was forced to do some manuvering on the turn to try and get out and get a run. The filly had the necessary burst. These two the rest aired by open daylight

Michael D.

Silver, I pencilled in a \'0\' for Kip. just thought he was better over firm turf, despite the BC win last year. the filly was just so dangerous though getting the weight. those two dusted a number of \'2\' type runners. nice horse race.

Jerry,

Ditto for today.  I won\'t pile on, because we can all have bad days, but I say this next statement as somebody who has used the product exclusively for quite a few years now:  Unless some correlation develops between your figures as horses move from dirt to synthetic and vica versa, I don\'t see any value/edge in using thorograph on synthetic tracks.  Actually, I don\'t see a reason to bet on synthetic period.  


Way too many slow horses won or raced well and many fast horses didn\'t run at all.

Miff,

Sorry about that.  I thought the price justified using FT, especially with the 2 big numbers.

Surprised you liked Black Mamba that much.  Adjusting for weight, he was no faster than many in there.

If you saw me play today, you would have chuckled at results.  Pretty piss poor, I\'m sure you could have analyzed some plays with a \"what the heck were you thinking???\"

Jimbo-- I\'m going to wait until I do the days to offer an opinion, but I\'m going to be looking at the rail both days, and for correlation between grass (not dirt) and Pro-Ride.
