    lol....i know that.

    my point is that its really difficullt to use post position stats as a handicapping tool - unless there is someplace that clearly lists the revised Post Positions after scratches. I have never seen that. i guess you can just do the changes by hand once you see the scatches.

    sometimes you can almost all but throw out a horse from PP 8 and up on the inner turf routes at Saratoga. the first turn is super tight, and horses that get caught wide are toast from the outset.

    Thanks for being my wingman , Mike, I stand corrected and like all good fighter pilots I have observed what I see and applied what I learned. Hope I don't face any reprimands for flying below the hard deck !!...Corrections have been made and duly noted !!
