The figures

\"Depending on how good the number it can be left or right, and there\'s room on the other side\"

JB,

...say what? you got Yogi Berra writing your posts?

Thanks. That\'s what I assumed but I thought I would check just in case there might be some other significance.

So just to clarify, by \"taking off another 1/2 point\" you would make Blame\'s number -3 (-2 1/2 - 1/2)?
Of course you\'d do the same to all the other runners.

Hey guys i have a question about drugs and drug testing at CD for the BC. Would you say now, in hindsight after looking at the post BC figs, that there was, or was NOT, more strict standards of drug testing at Churchill than is normally done? Supposedly, the BC and CD have this \'air tight\' drug testing, have you seen this in the figs that CD did indeed \'make horses slower\' or did most of these BC runners run figs that showed it was \'business as usual?

[TGJB]

Yes, by taking off I mean make the figures faster.

Jim,  

Just heard some Rag BC Figs(did not see them)

All Rag figs were translated to get to these TG figs:

More Than Real 3/4(faster than TG,I don\'t buy it, very ground loaded but a monster performance nevertheless)

Awesome Feather 5 3/4

Unriv Belle Neg -1/4

Uncle Mo  Neg -2 1/4

Goldikova Neg -4

Blame  Neg -1 1/4

Of note, Chamberlin Bridge got a fig equal to a TG 1/4, his prior Rag fig equal to a 3 1/2 on TG. Central City got a fig equal to a TG 2 1/2, his prior Rag fig was equal to a 7 1/2 on TG.Both of these got miraculously faster from their last start.

Mike

P.S.Stop betting against Goldikova,she lays over!!

[TGJB]

Miff-- I\'m not going to explain the Goldikova thing again. More importantly, the Rag numbers can be found on their homepage, and some of your translations are not correct. In the comedy section, they have More Than Real running 3 points better than Midday and Shared Account, among other things.

JB,

Did not see the Rags figs, just jotted down what someone told me and subtracted 3.5 points from the Rags to get to TG.
