Down In Distance.
Mark, or anyone - have you any comments on horses going down in distance? Looking at today's races there were four horses that were $3.50 or under pre-post that were reducing in race distance by at least 150 metres. They were:
Geelong R6 no.2 - Highly Elated.
Echuca R6 no.2 - Prince Of Scribes
Warren R4 no.3 - Moville Eddie
Kalgoorlie R3 no.1 - Christobal.
None of them won, nor were they placed which I suppose is encouraging.
Out of interest I also looked at $3.50 pre-post that were increasing in distance by more than 200 metres. There were 5 selections for three unplaced and a second - the fifth is still to run (Kalgoorlie R6 no.2). There were three such selections yesterday including Perlin, none won.
