I meant it was her pet distance on that day for that class, due to her last effort at the distance and her rating for it [best ever]. Maybe I shouldn't have used the word 'pet' [You mis-quoted, I didn't use capitals did I? anyway who cares] but close enough for her on the day as it turned out. I did something right anyway, regardless of how I perhaps, wrongly described it in a flourish of enthusiasm. Do we have a point of contention here Party?

I'm a handicapper mate, not a systemite [part time perhaps but play money only]. It's hard to explain to the uninitiated. Apart from the facts, there is a bit of art and intuition involved. My strike rate averages is 25% for handicapping at profit average prices. Better than any system I've ever tried. When I do, I handicap the selections anyway [can't help myself]!
