I know that is factored in but is it when the only 2 races to use are male and female?
I would say to check and see what Timeform used and who they are closer to. I have to be honest, I have much more faith in Timeform to get it right, even if they need to adjust than I do Beyers.
The Wood on Beyers was great. But MoDonegal didn't back that up. And while unfair to pin it on one horse, it is a clue.
Look for the timeform number and see if they adjusted it.
If you can, let me know.
Hope that makes sense JBEX .
