I'm pretty sure his crystal ball only finds the Saturday winners on Sunday.

Well, over 3% of all races in the UK of 2400+ are won by 0.05L or less. I think 3% equates to many races.

You clearly can't read. He didn't get beaten by 3L when he raced without blinkers. But it sure is helping make you look stupid now.

So the order is HK anything, then Aussie Black Type from G1 down to Listed, then NZ Black Type from G1 down to Listed. Thanks. I'll update the selections for the next few weeks.

Yet he still ran faster than Haylist and the others I mentioned. Was Haylist any good? He certainly didn't get beaten by 3L. He was 3L behind the track record. Keep up.

I'm not following whatever illusion you are on. The WFA scale is to account for differences in maturity over various distances. Whether that difference is generally nothing, 0.05L, 0.20L or whatever. It's not a difficult thing to understand. For most people.

Paragraph 1. That's Ok. I don't mind. Nobody in the history of racing sites has the complete stupidity that you display. That's one each. Paragraph 2. That's your opinion. Thanks for sharing. The only evidence against that is also opinion especially in light of the fact the horse has only raced the one time without. Are you suggesting that if they decide to race Redzel without blinkers, I shouldn't back it specifically for that reason?

That's odd since WFA scales are not uniform everywhere.

I only answered to your post. You said they reduced the allowance by 0.5kg. you didn't mention for what distances. 0.5kg = 0.05L impact 'generally'. I don't care what distances they've changed it for. They change it for different distances based on the maturity of the animal coping with the distance.

That impact of 0.05L will change many races. They may only be looking for a minor adjustment. Good on them if they believe the difference between the pool of horses has changed in such a fashion. Environmental factors may have done that, or it may be a knee jerk reaction like the way you pick horses after they've won. Still waiting for the links to these highly acclaimed studies.

Did I forget to mention Redzel carried 3.5kg more in his race than Snitzerland did in his. What's the formula again for that Thomass. Heck, he would have practically broken the track record at his only start without blinkers. Next to useless, no doubt about it. Hahahaha.

I'll have to update the blue print. Firstly, limited HK form is superior to NZ Black Type. Have I got that right. And also, seems you don't mind backing 4 in a race. Good to see. As for My Gift, I priced it at 8s and hadn't factored in HK or the allowance. Strange.

The only person you are spanking is yourself. Repeatedly. You are so far out of your depth. Since you first stated that Snowden said he was next to useless without blinkers. Now you're changing it - since he is far from useless without blinkers. It's what you do, you write as if you are quoting them , but they haven't said what you write. Because you're stupid. And it clearly looks like he runs as fast on all the evidence (except opinion), without blinkers as with blinkers. Who knew. Not you. So my opinion remains the same. That being the blinkers likely make no consequential difference to the performance of the horse. Snowden has his opinion. I'm happy to have a different one.

Thomass - having trouble finding the links to those two studies you claim to have already provided? Still waiting. I want more evidence to support the claim made by someone that you were a dunce.

Must have been. I'm not so sure the horse improved 10.7L. The margin between it and the winner changed by that, but is that improvement of that much? Wait til Thomass tells you he had adjusted the first start up by 12 lengths due to back luck and being hampered. What then?

And only a little bit quicker than Howmuchdoyouloveme, Hay List, Tiger Tees and Temple Of Boom ran when they ran in the G2 won by Snitzerland. Still, next to useless apparently.

Well that's what I was told anyway. I don't listen to hearsay, I prefer to measure performance objectively myself. Funnily enough, the horse has only ever raced once without blinkers. Ran 2nd over 1000m at Warwick Farm on a Good3. Next start with blinkers on, ran 2nd over 1100m. But the run at Warwick Farm is the 27th fastest over 1000m on a G3 or better in the last 15 years - out of over 1000 horses at that track/distance/track condition. A real slug without blinkers for sure. Only half a second off the best - done by Snitzerland no less in a G2 race. Clearly when Thomass states the trainer says the horse is next to useless without them, Snowden must think that performance was next to useless. Tough marker. All the other horses he races there without blinkers on must be next to useless as well. Since they don't run as fast as Redzel did - without blinkers!

Gee, we are all slow. The blue print isn't about backing winners, it's about laying - as they are then winners in your account. Too easy.

Some great down in graders today for sure wally. Such as R1 Ephinet. Unplaced R2 Glendalough. Winner $3.50 (3rd start after Black Type) R3 Lite My Cigar. 3rd $1.60p (4th start after Black Type) R3 Ambitious Showgirl. Unplaced R6 Ponta Alma. Winner $2.20 (4th start after Black Type) R7 August Edition. Unplaced R7 Joe Cargo. Unplaced R7 Motivation. 3rd $1.20p (6th start after Black Type) R8 Pinot Grey. 2nd $1.80p (1st start after Black Type) R9 Uabasso. 2nd $1.90p (11 starts after Black Type) R9 Morrellmac. Unplaced (3 starts after Black Type) No doubt you filled your boots.....with vomit after that debacle - which Thomass will call a punting master class.

There is no getting pantsed here. You're just sharing opinions. You're allowed to believe those ones more than mine. I don't get hung up on opinion. You must think everyone has to have the same opinion as you (or trainers/jockeys) or they are wrong. No wonder you can't punt. I'm still waiting for the links to these studies about the impact of weight.

This is not the same as what you have now quoted from me. Try English remedial classes. You're a waste of time and effort. Get help. What you quoted is my opinion. Absolutely.

And why are you hijacking another thread with your obsession with blinkers.

No, if they say that, they're wrong because they are wrong. Being a punter doesn't make it right or wrong. The massive evidence makes it right.

Brave Smash would have won in my opinion. Funny thing about all these points, no one can ever be proven right or wrong. They can ONLY be opinion.

Put my quote up as you keep stating things I haven't written.
