SJU5-- just saw this. We do get race by race readings, and Dave Litfin (who does our trackman work in NY) gave us an 8 o'clock wind all day, actually had it more in the first. Which flags were you looking at? The wind currents at Aqu are infamous-- when they come around the grandstand the two infield flags sometimes point in opposite directions, at each other.
Whether it had something to do with wind or not, I did do the first two a little different than the next three sprints. In general, that stuff is useful, but not definitive-- like all info about wheather, track maintenance, etc. In the end you go by the horses.
