Question Regarding Reading TG Sheets (1250 Views)

I am an avid user of TG sheets, but I want to make sure that I am analyzing them correctly. May I ask a few questions just to make sure that I understand?

- First when looking at the patterns of an older horse how much significance do you give to back class numbers. For example if a horse was running "3"s and "4"s but his last two or three races have been "6"s or "8"s, and another horse in the race consistently runs "6"s, how should I figure that? Do I go with the horse running 3's and 4's on top in my tris and in my WPS bets?

- Secondly, what about for example three year olds. Would it make sense to look at the last three races and then try to get an average for each horse for their last three or four races and use that as a starting point? For example - War Emblem had a "1" then a "1" and then a "0" and Proud Citizen had a "2", "1", and "0". So 2 divided by 3 = avg for WE last three races = .67 and for Proud Citizen's numbers 3/3 = 1 for the avg for PC last three races. Is this a good way to do it or am I missing something here.

- Third scenario - a horse runs a "5"
then a "4" and then something like a "10" in his last race. What do I make of this?

Thank you for any help that you can offer me as I am still learning how to effectively utilize the TG.
