I need to really learn this game then, I saw 2 horses plodding home who wanted no part of really going long, the 1 had really no excuse at all.

Honestly, this is a given.

I know the race went 6 seconds faster then the one before, but that race before is like bottom level junk, no?

Instead of hastening to form opinions, sometimes it helps to actually do the real research, and quantify things as opposed to using useless generalizations.

" Bottom level junk " run speed figures as well. 38 lengths at 1 1/16 equals around 65 Beyer points. Everything is relative.

The third finisher in the 9th lost by 16 3/4 lengths. That's around 28 Beyer points. Did you look at his pps?

This stuff isn't rocket science.

I see it....
I guess this is why the game is not as simple as beyers... This race will come back large, and I want no part of either of these horses next out, especially if its in races like the Jim Dandy or Haskell.

And therein lies part of the problem. You insist on making kneejerk reactions to performances and forming opinions both seconds after races are run and subsequently weeks before others are even drawn, much less run. What exactly is the upside in this? So you can make internet declarations? How much money does that translate to at the windows?

Some of us have to offer opinions a day or two before races are run. For no reason whatsoever you insist on doing it weeks in advance. Preconceived notions will get you nowhere.

I agree, I know this is my problem, maybe Im just to stubburn to fix it. I hate forming opinions and not being able to budge off it, but its just my personallity, I dont want to be like this... I really dont.
