[QUOTE=Benny]I have an idea, but I don't know if the idea holds up.

The rules are:

Distance Winners (I.e. horses that have won at the distanceI
in the top 3 in the poll
Carry's less than 56kgs in current race
Last start within 21 days.

Benny!
Forget about the distance win unless all the contenders in the race had a try at the distance!
You would be surprised to learn how many horses win running the distance for the first time.
Last starts 21 days?? Depends on distance!
My best winners come from first uppers at dist. < 1250
Weight carried? Your guess is as good as mine.
Cheers.
