![]() I don't really get the point of the article, it's written like slowly run races are some exception we rarely see. The opposite is the truth. Majority of races tend to be horses show speed early, find a position then settle till the sprint home.
“Take little notice of race results where the overall time is slow” could only be good advice on the assumption the majority of races aren't slowly run. I'd say that's incorrect. You don't ignore it, you just have to analyse further. And all form is relative. Any horse can run any distance, carry any weight, handle any condition against the right [inferior] competition. |

![]() A piece of the puzzle, if your a hcp'r maybe a reason you look elsewhere for that qualifying run...and in the recent past, say, the last 2 years , I hear, watching a race many a speed map has been thrown in the bin with a whats the point feel to it.

![]() On my understanding depending on the length of a copyright article a paragraph or a few paragraphs are OK for fair comment. Acknowledgement of the source must also be provided.

![]() It was not the whole article [about 5000 less words]. As the writer owns another website relating to racing and also sells a selection service, I thought the rule here was not to publish other site names that might compete with this site [?]
As far as copyright goes, yes there is copyright on material sent to selection service and sectional times clients [and I was one for 12 mths], but not on freely available material on the site. Nothing I posted in this thread or any other was or has been from any information I received as a client. In hindsight I should have printed the author's name, but that would have lead to the site ...Catch 22. I'm quite happy to put the author's name as a credit on the [part] article, but it is no longer here. Last edited by crash : 25th June 2009 at 07:36 AM. |

not wanting to inflame the matter but I agree with you. I'm familiar with both the site and the article in question, I even thought to myself, crash is learning and behaving himself by blocking the reference to the site. There is such a thing as being afraid of one's own shadow I think! Good luck |

![]() Why do we see such great variation in pace these days ?. Is it due to better tactics developed by jockeys / trainers - perhaps international influence with different riding styles etc ? Maybe more initiative given to jockeys to make an on the spot decision.

Is there such a wide variation? Has it not always been like this? |
