I truly don't know how to measure this. Three scenarios have been presented.
Both horses get Orb's trip
I lean toward Orb
Both get NI's trip
I don't know
They swap trips
I lean toward NI
So now I compare NI to Oxbow. Orb beat NI by 3 1/2 NI beat Oxbow by 6
Both horses get NI's trip
I lean toward NI
Both horses get Oxbow's trip
I don't know
They swap trips
I lean toward Oxbow
How do I measure how much of a toll Oxbow's trip took on him by running 4/5 faster than NI in the first 1/4 mile and 2/5 (appr.) slower in the second 1/4? I'm just guessing.
