JB,
I'll assume you looked at Alan Jerkens and the quick returners don't do well. His point, on more than one occasion was, you run them when are appear to be doing well,rest them when they need it.
I'll have some data to share with you in the coming weeks re spacing(two years worth of stats from NYRA tracks). Without going into detail, dirt horses than ran back within 21 days or less won at a far higher percentage than horses that run back with more than 21 days.Not talking about what figs they ran or tops or anything like that.
Trying to get them to filter the data by levels/frequency( claimers, allowance stakes),and eliminating long layoffs,90+ days.Right now, it's just one big pot which I feel skews the results.Stakes runners might also be skewed cause guys just don't run back quick anymore.
Have you ever ran such a search from your data base re spacing?
Mike
