No, not recieved Mark.
I was going to point out the shortener thing from the last post, but as I mentioned, most of them did open shorter.

A few thoughts:
Perhaps the 3 months EI enforced layoff that most of the horses had last year has had an efeect on the 12 month rule?
Should it be extended to 15 months???

Also, maybe a bit of tweaking with the win %'s rule along the lines of smaller % for "stayers" (as they have to have more conditioning runs), and a higher % for "sprinters", as they get to a more suitable distance earlier in their prep.
Don't know how these adjustments would go on the selections, just a few thoughts.

One change........only laying @10 or less instead of 20 or less.

Add SR4, 5 Innings. Anyone who has the Courier Mail form guide from Friday will see that this horse wasn't listed in the form. 2 wins from 19 and hasn't won in almost 2 years.

Mark,

What was the end result?

Hi CP

Small loss on a very quiet day.
Email on its way.
