JB, on the page explaining the fig-based trainer profiles what I noticed is that it says the statistics are based on tg figs from 1-1-98 to 12-31-03. Does that mean the figures do not reflect any data from this year? If so how often are they-will they be updated? Is this the set of stats your referring to as the rolling 3 month stats or are you referring to another set of stats.
Thanks

The Judge likely ordered the drug testing as one of the conditions for them to be released along with the "travel restrictions" the judge also placed on them. You get arrested-you get drug tested. One more drug test failure and its behind bars while awaiting trial. These guys lives are ruined, time served or not. Next their Assets likely will be frozen and confiscated IF any connectio

A possible contender in a tough race-A potential improving 3 year old who has paired up tops in his previous 4 races before the QEII. A number for his last would have been very useful. Did he regress or take a move forward? I waited to get the data til today so I could have all the euro numbers. If you have the number for the race can you post-it please.
Good Luck to all.

You and I will not be the only ones who has/will notice Colonella. If she goes off at 10-1 I'll be shocked. But lots of people don't like maiden winners right back to win so hopefully that will help the final odds.
Just Looked at the race this morning and you've got 4 horses all with flat non-improving lines and slower than Colonella. Then you have Smooth Blues who popped a fig on

Went 0-8 opening day. I gotta start being more selective. Thursday I had to go into the office and work. Friday made one wager on the overbet Volponi in The Bernard Baruch.
I got thru the Siro's crowd opening day and spent about an hour there but not meeting anyone from here. I Spent the weekend with the wife & kids on Sunday going to the Great Escape. I have to work all this week or so

@ 6am for my home-exit 14. I'll be at the far end of the outside tent at Siro's after the Last race, win or loose and wearing a grey/blue cap and glasses. A round of drinks on me awaits.
Haven't been able to put down TG sheets since printing them out Monday. My flesh is up here for work but my soul never is far from the paddock.

Dude, Back in June you said....
"TGAB&TGJB may be nice guys but Rags product is far superior. I challenge anyone to a contest. I know you people on here are going to post long idiotic post but either take the challenge or don't."
You then dissappeared and never responded to the people who wanted to take you up on your challenge back in June. Then today you re-appear just to m

I have complete understanding of the contest and its rules so I must be unreasonable.
I guess I should have just automatically assumed huh. My frustration is that this entry issue could/should have been agreed upon before today just like all of the other rules of the contest.
Use the first horses I listed then for my one entry selection. Gotta go.
Good Luck to all.

Geez, At the last minute after I've posted my selections you guys don't want entry's? An entry is an entry-one betting interest and its no lock an entry will finish where someone has selected it to finish.

There is no Restaurant on the corner of Nelson and Union Ave. in Saratoga.
Siro's is one block in from Union Ave on Nelson and Fourstardave Way. A round of drinks is on me at the Siro's outside tent opening day after the 9th. for people from the TG office and anyone showing up witn the days TG sheets.

That's a big assumption Mr. Cee's Tizzy. How do you know for sure?
It's my understanding that this guy's link got cut-off last year when he was found out. There's been some mention of this (him) just recently in articles talking about the testing being done on new tote software that will allow odds to be updated every 45 seconds instead of every 60 seconds.

OK gang. We know we should be/must be? keeping an accurate an honest record of our wagers right? so how many of us really do that? Who really knows for sure how much we won or lost for an entire year or even just a race meet? How many of us have started to keep track and just stopped cause we started loosing or just got lazy?

One suggestion I have for anyone looking for rooms for Saratoga is to consider looking in places North or South of Saratoga like Glens Falls to the North or Clifton Park or even Albany to the south. Rates will be less and there should be more rooms available. Try Clifton Park its only 15 minutes from the track and there's 2 new hotels just about finished- I gotta believe the owners want co

And so you have a more insightful clue about Godolphin. Enlighten me.
I'll get you started by asking where and when will Express Tour show-up?
Do you have anything useful you want to say about Godolphin or would you rather continue telling me I'm way off base without saying something useful people may coinsider when handicapping a race with Godolphin runners?

I'm of a conservative let's wait and see how this horse (Greatness) develops and runs thru his conditions before saying much more about his future. I expect Allen to go right thru NW3 with this horse before seeing him in a stakes race. And they'll be no reason not to wait and see what will happen over the next few efforts. It's not like you'll loose out on any great bett

What do you mean "juicing their animals"?
There's no question that Godolphin provides the best of everything for their horses. The question is if Essence is as good as the others he will be competing against on Saturday. Tom Albertrani has already been quoted as saying that "he (EOD)will be up against it", and they are hoping for a faster pace and that the distance wi

Good read on the previous 5 years of TG data for Belmont top 3 finishers and here's some more truths. Godolphin horses are running poorly so far this year in this country. They have one odds-on maiden winner, Dubai Tiger, out of 6 runners so far. None of the other 5 have even finished in the money! Including odds on Infinite Spirit. Don't worry though Ibn will go next in a maiden race

In an article in DRF just before the Preakness Beyer admitted to not playing WE in the Derby despite the speed fig he gave him for the Illinois Derby. If anyone would want to give themselves credit for their figs it would be Beyer. But he was honest and didn't.
