Re: Thoro-Pattern
I think Steve Byk is the only other person to pay attention to the Thoro-Pattern. ;-)
Kidding aside, it's definitely a concern that HOF comes in off an X. I'm not surprised his Thoro-Pattern numbers are lacking because of that. Not many horses can recover off a bad effort like that ... next out. I guess I'm making an exception in this particular case because the horse in question is lightly raced.
I'm also not that surprised that AGATE ROAD looks good. Thoro-Pattern doesn't take into consideration how the top was earned. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's my understanding of the data.
I'm not sure what's more of a cause for concern. A horse that moves forward 5 points, or a horse that goes backwards 5 points off a top. We're gonna find out soon enough, though.
