I'm still getting a handle on this new ancillary data and appreciate the observations , study's , musings etc being put up - thanks ... Just a couple non-statisical obsevations that most people here are undoubtably aware of , when a horse need's to improve significaly ( in running big top effort ) in order to win , I try to evaluate , if possible , form cycle's , patterns and the type of numbers that have previously been displayed by runners of that progeny ( not to mention the horse's own pattern ) . To get a fuller understanding if an explosive line is a stronger or weaker likelyhood , I'll use the TP , TGI and Breeding info to get a kind of window and departure point to view things from - then , race conditions , trainer patterns/style , race conditions , pace senario's + others factors like jockey etc are also valuable to weigh . I don't take any of the new data lightly and so far the ThoroPattern has helped me to identify and differentiate between A++ and B-- /C play's and has helped in spotting value ...
