So Jerry, what is your opinion on the ground loss v. momentum issue? Some posters seem to think that if a jockey can maintain a horse's momentum it may be worth the ground lost doing so. Just looking at the chart, it looks to me like the ground loss, assuming say, two paths (and up) lost on the turn, is going to be too much to overcome most of the time even if you're riding a freight train.
