Wind direction strongly impacts fractional time, in terms of final time - it breaks up set relationships on a parallel time chart - it also can impact outcomes of races ... and the more I study it - the more I think it can be a factor of predicting track biases before they even occur at a few certain tracks. It also can cause tracks to cancel ... as it did today.

How often do horses jump in infield lakes?

It was actually Ballston Lake on the way back from the track in 2004. I had a horrible day and we took the back roads home. We pulled into a restaurant parking lot. The restaurant is named Good Times. My friend said $100 if you walk on the dock and jump in, and I did.

I forgot to mention more twin spires complaint threads,your Jr backstretch food service thread and Coa is really injured and a thread not caring about that but asking who rides 2 of his regular mounts. This thread is about a potential up and comer from a great barn who is well bred. I prefer talking actual horse who run in races. Not all the other stuff.
