End Result: My theory did not hold up as I expected, so I am discontinuing the thread and my tracking.

I would not believe that after only 1 month's tracking, you could get so much data in relation to FIRMING and DRIFTING horses. I am sure it is enough to fill at least 1 book when you take it all the various amounts, times, situations and try and quantify!

For me, I find it to large a subject to try and summarise, and also, as with stats, one could easily slant them to suites one persuasion, which was not my aim.

However if I had to list one finding, the one thing that did come through it all was LAYING showed more potential than BACKING - so maybe therein lies a clue!

Good Punting ... Fred
