Both winners crossed my mind, but with the exception of being third off they didn't figure to be the winner in my eyes.
Question is, just how powerful is this angle??? Or maybe it's just coincidence...
Thanks

It's an old angle, oldtimers at the track use to swear by it as many trainers figured two preps and then the target race, often they run two sprints then move up to a distance for the score. I think it's weakened a bit by training methodology employed today...many trainers will train a horse up to the target race or use a single prep but it's always good to study the pp's of the first two starts for hidden signs (ie: fast internal fractions) that a horse is being brought to top form.
