Hooh Why was sitting on a monster trip after her effort in the SA Oaks, where she held very well against the flow. Outside of Gozzip Girl and SB, HW 'wiped out' the field in the Ashland. It's evident that the setup that day favored speed -- though HY did run well in WO subsequently. You've seen the replay, I'm sure you noted that GG, who's not bad at all, had dead aim at HY in the stretch and is supposed to blow by. Instead, she hung like a rat -- which she's not. So, what's your point about SB in the Ashland?
"SLOW" is from the old paradigm.
POLY requires a conceptual shift and a new vocabulary.
P.S. AD HOC methodology changes do not quite equal a conceptual shift.
Oh, and those not playing POLY on a regular basis really shouldn't be commenting on it, on a regular basis.
