Assuming the polytrack which is being installed at TP works out reasonably well, I am told that it will be installed at Kee, the US distributor, before spring. It's gotten very positive reviews from horsemen since it was installed at the Kee training track a number of mos. ago.

Ah yes, Summerly. I played Rush Bay into Summerly in the 9th-10th double on Fri, & then tried to play her with the winner of the last, but there was no 10th-11th double, which is why I played her into the wrong derby horses in the Oaks/Derby double. The reason her performance is interesting, however, is that prior to the races on Fri & again on Sat, I took the position that the track was playing pretty close to fair & was favoring horses with the best late kick. One or more posters questioned the assessment because Sis City wired the field, which is actually beside the point. She had the best fr3 in the race, much better than Sis City, & was every bit as fast if you were willing to ignore one race. Same thing happened in an early race on Sat, a horse with the best fr3 wired or came close to wiring the field, which was enough for some handicappers to, in my opinion, mistakenly conclude that the track was favoring early speed. CD has a history of getting faster throughout the day when it's dry & sunny, but for 4 days in a row competitive number horses with the best fr3 won and/or ran well in a much higher pct of races than usual, even for CD. In other words, very favorable conditions for those with accurate performance figures who understand the difference between pace handicapping & the one component of pace handicapping which is sometimes discussed on this Bd.
