After the recent post on the Lexus chase, I spent hours going back through previous <b>leopardstown</b> results and correcting the RP standard times.
The results on how far out I found the RP standard times to be in seconds:
2m2f(H) – <b>8.0s</b>
2m4f(H) – <b>7.0s</b>
3m(H) – <b>21.0s</b>
2m1f(C) – <b>1.0s</b>
2m3f(C) – <b>14.0s</b>
2m5f(C) – <b>25.0s</b>
3m(C) – <b>28.0s</b>
3m100y(C)- <b>30.0s</b>Here are my speed figures from yesterday’s <b>Leopardstown</b> meeting, you can compare them against the Racing Post’s <b>Top Speed</b> figures, and you will see a major difference.
Going allowance <b>-0.40s/f</b> (Good to soft)
<b>Leopardstown (IRE)</b>
<b>18-Jan-15</b>
12:50 Golan Road 2m <b>102</b>
01:20 Fletcher 2m4f <b>86</b>
01:50 Vautour 2m3f <b>127</b>
02:20 Foxrock 2m5f <b>130</b>
02:50 Katie T 2m <b>109</b>
03:20 Mydor 3m <b>90</b>
03:50 Balko Des Flos 2m <b>73</b>For the record, I did ask several times for the <b>Leopardstown</b> RP standard times to reviewed without any success, the reason for the variations in the standards was put down to the <b>going</b> and <b>rail movements</b> <!– s:shock: –>

I finally got around to looking at the
Top Speed
figures for last Sundays meeting at
Leopardstown
.
Top Speed:
Leopardstown (IRE)
18-Jan-15
12:50 Golan Road 2m
105
01:20 Fletcher 2m4f
46
01:50 Vautour 2m3f
68

26
02:50 Katie T 2m
118
03:20 Mydor 3m

03:50 Balko Des Flos 2m

What impressed me the most was the speed figure of
9
awarded to 3m hurdle winner
Mydor
when I made it
90
, then what do I know I am only a amateur
I do believe that the
Racing Post
are now in charge of the racing data, my thoughts on that are…be afraid, be very afraid
So I was correct about the standards being wrong then BB, it wasn’t the distances being incorrect after all?
Google maps are a must really aren’t they with all these errors at courses?
Well, except for Haydock, which we must assume is a bit of a mystery to everyone in the industry after the weekend’s palaver.
@ Slowhand
Yes you were right.
The figures for Haydock on Saturday looked right to me, mind you I always take my time when assessing Haydock.
