<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> Go look at the BC results from all the Breeder's CUps ever held at Belmont, funny thing speed on the rail was best by light years, in fact one year the track was so hard several animals broke down,
<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I just went back and looked at all the Breeders Cup races run at Belmont, and I have a few questions for you...
1. Just because the track surface is very hard does that mean that the rail will be automatically favored?
2. If the rail was so damn good at Belmont for the Breeders Cups, tell me why the OUTSIDE post position in all dirt races made a healthy flat-bet profit ($50 returned from $30 wagered) while post position 1 had ONE single winner for all three BCs that were held there (which happened to pay a measly 3.60)?
3. If the rail was so damn good for the 2001 BC at Belmont, then WHY did Thorograph decide to make that day an "X" day (the X signifying a dead rail in the TG system)? And WHY did almost every horse who ran on the rail that day return in its next race with an improved figure? (Try spinning your way out of THAT one doofus)
4. How come, year after year, that BLINDLY betting the outside post position to win on the (fast) main track produces a profit?
5. Do you think that the outside post AT ALL contributed to Sarava winning the Belmont last year at 75-1 (from the OUTSIDE post position)?
You can continue to claim to know track supers or use personal attacks when you've been beaten but ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS FIRST please.
