Try having a country Footbal team competing against Collingwood.
They are simply way out of their class.
And also picture this.
Usain Bolt running in a Marathon.
He will fail miserably because he doesn't have the stamina.
Dijamaka Keen had both those things against it.
Not as extreme as my example , but quite a large gap anyway.
I had it running about 35.5 seconds even without any interference.
That is 8 lengths away from what the winner would run.

Thanks moeee, this is along the lines of what I noticed with my selections.
You may have noticed that in one of my post to you, I printed out some other numbers as well.
One of those numbers are the best time on the distance ran by one of the dogs in that race, (ie. not the BEST ever or record time) and when my selection happens to be that dog then it usually wins or places.
If none of them match it then I have one other criteria that is very important.
Also I ignore dogs that have won their last two starts but not those that won the last only or the ones that won their last 3 starts.
Don't know why but it makes a heck of a difference, must have to do with class movements?
Cheers
