Default They are only human you know.....

But there sure have been quite a few horses at PID with wide trips who get the comment "rail" in their running line.

* Livingstonbell ran on Aug 17th against an inside-speed favoring track. He's the exact kind of horse you look for .. a wide post and wide trip against a very slow pace - and yet he still manages to pass and outrun several horses. However, his comment in the DRF says "closed willingly, rail"

As you can see - he's the grey horse and he was 6 wide on the first turn...




Six wide on the backstretch ....




And five wide on the far turn....




After his extremely wide trip last out while supposedly racing on the "rail" - he was bet down strongly from his 8-to-1 morning line and easily won todays first race by a couple lengths paying $7.80 to win.

To be fair, the full chart did say 6 wide until the stretch, then rail. He never really was on the rail, maybe 2-3 wide at best before drifting back out.

Then he should send this to Equibase, not post it on Derby Trail. They actually take criticsim very well there if presented properly and respectfully and work to fix it.

Yeah there's nothing better than doing someone's job for them and it's even better when you don't get paid to do it.

Send it to Equibase, Doug.

It would certainly do him more good than posting it on Derby Trail. I actually know the guys at Equibase and if Doug could show he could do a better job, they'd be interested.

I wouldn't make a pimple on a good chart callers ass. I've been in the room with them as a race goes... it would take me a half an hour to do something they routinely do in five minutes.

My salami is looking to gain entrance - first into your sisters anal cavity - and then into her tonsils.

Or perhaps it is about some people actually being interested in posting potentially useful information about handicapping on a website devoted to horse racing.
What an interesting concept.

No its Dougs attack on my close personal friend. A fellow DT member, it hurt me to have to read it, and I wanted to show everyone what Doug really is.
