How often are the trainer and sire stats updated? Every day? Once a week? How much of a lag time is there between what's on the sheets and what the real stats are. Let me give you two examples of what I'm asking, one for the trainer and one for the sire. For the last 90 days trainer stats for example how many days (I'm assuming it's only days) behind the previous days races is it falling? If I'm looking at a set of sheets for last Saturday at Belmont does the last 90 days include races run that week? I hope I'm explaining this well enough to get an answer.
Now for the sire stats, there positivly is either a greater lag time or some serious errors. Let me give you one example I've seen. The sire stats for Distorted Humor. On Derby day he's listed as having 10 stakes winners. On Belmont Day he's still listed as having 10 stakes winners. We all know what happened in between the derby and Belmont. Distorted Humor got at least 3 more stake winners I know of. 2 with Funny Cide and 1 with Go Rockin Robin who won if I remember the Peter Pan or was it the Dwyer. So how often are the sire and trainer stats updated? How often is the sire TGI updated.
I've been meaning to ask this for a while but I've been too busy. This is not intended to be critical but more to know especially for the trainer stats just how far behind recent racing are they. Then we can factor in for ourselves any recent days racing results.
Thanks in advance.
