Paolo-- Buy a clue. We have done actual studies of those Euro figures, not just for this year's BC, but looking at ALL the ones that have come here to run. We did it twice, a couple of years apart, and it came out right both times. You think we picked the correlation out of the air?
Miff-- exactly right. I suspect that underlying what he's trying to say is the misuse of pars, based on a silly assumption-- that grass and dirt horses SHOULD be the same, which market forces alone make untrue in this country. But until they clarify what they did I can't be sure.
One part of it seems to be they changed their beaten length correction, for both dirt and turf. They were off a little before, so that part could be correct.
