Stix, Neil,

Thanks for putting these up.

I have been looking at dual nominees and I wonder if anyone has enough data to run a test for me.

System1:
Take any horse which has been scratched in Race1 where the barrier is worse by at least 2 positions in Race2 (the race he is running in).

For example today Retail Therapy was scratched in Race 3 Barrier 5 but will be running in Race 1 Barrier 7.

and :

System 2:
Take any horse which has been scratched in Race1 where the weight is less than the weight in Race 2 by 1 Kg or worse.

For example lets take Retail Therapy again - was scratched in Race 3 58.5Kgs but will be running in Race 1 60kgs.

System 3:
And for a final test how does it go when both occur such as in todays Retail Therapy? Both barrier and Weight penalties.

Thanks again
Good Luck.
