The problem is ATA & the bit that Thomass can't understand is how much weighting to you apply to that unlucky run?. Its unquantifiable so for me it can't be considered as a factor, I can't compare 1 unlucky run to a wide run with any sort of accuracy so then it just becomes a guesstimate. In an activity like betting which is full of uncertainty placing any real emphasis on a factor like wide runs, 3yr olds after Xmas, Blinkers on & a number of the other blueprint ideas only adds to the uncertainty.
You & T has criticised Myself, Curious & Mardi for putting up prices miles out of whack with the market on many runners, that comes down to what Mardi stated above that we are not looking to match what the general consensus is but to differentiate from it, following the pack doesn't win you a cent long term.
