HH's line at end of 2 yo campaign really pointed this one out - no surprise that 3 yo numbers are also right there too .

I don't want to say that I don't care how a horse runs a number becouse I should know better , but I'm certainly giving deference to numbers and pattern over running style's or projected pace senario's .

When factors like pattern , numbers , breeding , running styles , projected pace senario's , timeliness , trainer & jockey patterns , starting positions etc coincide - that can add up to an "A" play if there is value .

Looking for the Horse who is ready to run a top effort or peak performance based on numbers and pattern that ( obvious groundloss not withstanding ) puts them there despite other considerations , to me is the most pervaisive criteria for determining a horse's chances of winning ...
