Red Giant got the same fig - and he won his Grade 1 in a desperate battle instead of winning by double digits on a soft turf.

I'm not a big fan of figures for turf racing - but I think all figures become meaningless when the turf becomes soft as the margins between horses tend to get much larger and some horses struggle with the ground.

Default Beyers I never use them

I use Brisnet pp, they are free on TSpires, and the power ratings are my tie -breaker when stuck between 2 runners, I find they are more accurate than Beyers, and i have sucess with them, just an opinion.

You are largely alone in that opinion as most find the Brisnet figures useless. They are computer generated, thereby taking no mitigating race day factors or circumstances into account.

Steve, I'm not disagreeing as I use both BRIS and Beyers. I'm a believer in the more information you have, the better you are off. That and race videos give a capper a much better chance I believe.

I,m glad I am alone on this , works for me and you are saying Beyers, factors on one day will be the same on the next day the horse in question runs? Also the Bris, computer figures are more than just speed rating however I said I us them as a tie -breaker, not a factor alone, They work for me. A figure weather hand calculated, or computer generated is still just a figure to help you in selections. Beyers are no better than speed ratings with variances.

Would love to see Zenyatta go in the BC Classic, instead of the Distaff.
It would benefit both races.
