Thanks Blues Brother.
Focail Maith runs tomorrow from which he recorded 79 last time in a class 5.Only Sir Boss (77) two runs back looks anywhere near him.
My only worry is nothing has placed from 7 runners in Focail Maiths race.

It was nice to see old timer
Kames Park
who was one of the first in the improver’s list at

finally winning at last

It still amazes me that they still give out the going at
Wolverhampton
as
standard
, when it continues to ride
standard to fast
.
As I have already stated, when the cold weather returns so will the kickback, the time and effort they put in laying down 40,000 gallons of binder has achieved nothing

I hope I am wrong

I see the old dodge pot
Menadati
has an entry in the 4.00 Kempton Monday with Adam Kirby booked, this horse should carry a wealth warning as he a notorious slow starter but has ability, I know from experience that he will pop up at a price any time soon

Dhhamaan
has an entry on Wednesday 8th in the 2.50 Wolverhampton, as I have him
16lb
ahead of the handicapper, I will be very surprised if he gets beaten

Kempton+0.15
(standard)
Wolverhampton+0.39
(standard to fast)
Soapbox time:
When I work out the going allowances for any meeting, I always start at
0.00s/f
per furlong and this visually gives me an indication to the speed of the surface.
So I set-up an excel table for
Wolverhampton
and straight away I am looking at a speed figure for
Aubrietia
of
98
, which would be a
listed
class rating

As
Aubrietia
won by
5 lengths
and her last two speed figures have only been
40
and
60
, has she suddenly improved by a rate of knots, or was it simply a case of the going helping her by being very fast

I have erred on side of caution and decided that she was helped by the speed of the polytrack, only time will tell

Dave Edwards "Top Speed" has awarded
Aubrietia
a speed rating
13lbs
higher than me, who is right

A special mention goes to the stroke Marco Botti pulled off with his charge
Sweet Force
by taking the piss out off the official handicapper and landing a massive touch

He only managed to beat 1 horse home in his 3 qualifying races and was allotted a lowly handicap mark of
48

As Matt Chapman stated on ATR yesterday, it was all done within the rules, I expect the official handicapper after he has stopped spitting feathers, will put this horse up by at least
20lbs
for taking the piss out of him

Standard times alert:
I noticed this morning that Dave Edwards "Top Speed" has knocked off chunks from the
RP AW standard times
especially at Kempton

I don’t suppose this has anything to do with the continuous
standard to fast
going allowances that I record every day on the polytracks, that are always officially returned as
standard

Update:
Working through the AW standards the biggest change was to the
1m2f150y
distance at Dundalk (
-1.50s
)

I would like to know what preparation the

track staff did to their Polytrack as they suddenly slowed the surface down by over
20lb
per furlong

When I came to work out the going allowances at

they had produced the most perfect
good
going on the turf course at
+0.03

good to firm

It looks like the
Wolverhampton
track staff have been harrowing their polytrack, the going allowance today of
+0.11
per furlong, is the slowest it has been in a long time

If anybody wanted to know the reason why I don’t use the weight for age allowance for 2yo and 3yo’s when compiling my speed figures, this is simply because the original WFA scale designed by
Admiral Rous
is so far out it frightens me, even the new revised Racing Post WFA scale isn’t accurate

My project for this year will be to produce an accurate WFA scale on a month by month or bimonthly basis

Alex Hammond
mentioned on
ATR
today that the Clerk of the Course at Wolverhampton, said that they have been working on the track and with the rain he expected the polytrack to ride on the slow side.
The going allowance at
-0.01
per furlong, is the slowest I have recorded at
Wolverhampton
in the past year

I have already stated, that all the
WFA
scales produced were inaccurate and this year I was going to put together my own
WFA
scale.
For example
Raceform
have a 3yo in January
-6lb
inferior to a 4yo, so I did a quick calculation using my figures, I find that the 3yo’s are inferior to the older horses by
-12lbs
.
