As some horses are ground dependent and some even course dependent, can anyone tell me if there are any horses which may run better at say 8 in the evening than say 2 in the afternoon. Can the trainer deduce this and therefore look to run the horse at a certain time?
Has anybody any form figures to suggest this could be the case for a horse?
Or is this just a silly question

There was a horse who was always good at night, but she’s an ex now.
Some horses with low sweat production will perform better in the evenings if the evenings are relatively cool, if it has a slow digestion system and the cooler air contains a higher amount of oxygen to relieve breathing problems. I keep stats on all such items.
UK trainers cannot deduce this or much else.
