"When it gets very bad and the margins are more than 2x average, IMO all the figures are gibberish."

As Ronald Reagan said, "there you go again."

All the figures are gibberish? Can you read? When you see a figure and it says 15-sy, that's gibberish to you? When you look at a horse's sheet, and you see he runs 6's, and then there's a 15-sy on there, you can't tell that maybe the horse didn't like a wet track? When the horse runs 8's and then you see 4-sy, you can't tell that the horse LIKED the wet track? You can't distinguish between the 'sy' numbers and the numbers that aren't indicated with an 'sy?'

If you have an older horse that's run enough, you can see VERY CLEARLY on TG how they are likely to run in various conditions, including slop. If they haven't run a lot, there are sire stats and other things you can look at. It's hardly gibberish. And I guess you don't see anything wrong with weighing in on someone else's work and calling it "gibberish." You're aware that that is INCREDIBLY insulting, right? I never thought I'd make this comparison, but Jerry is a regular Mahatma Ghandi putting up with you.

I thought you would take a break after the "asshandicapper" posts but you are obviously impervious to criticism. Originally I thought that stuff was out of line, but after reading your posts, and how they are just so ROUTINELY oblivious and insulting, I guess they have their place.
