Putting horses in races where they can draw good is good placement!!!
I'm slippery when wet put in pref draw for mares races. Draws good cos only mare or only few in races it been in. Good Placement In my book!!!
Same with cullens hope. 3yo racing in no better than C0 or Ro but being 3yo gets 1 draw til wins enough races to become R0 or C0 cos only been coping right Handicap, 3R1, 3A1 etc.
Not the system boys its the placement by trainers!!!
I haven't kept full records of what barrier draws are what for long...
I can tell you that it's got
NOT a thing to do with pref draw for mares.. they only started them 4 weeks ago anyway.. when asked to by a certain owner.....
I don't know about the 24/9/07 run BUT
28/9/07 - PBD / Rclass (no sex) it draws 1 and Polish the silver draws 2 out of the 6 R1 horses (r1 - r2 class)
8/10/07 - PBD / RClass (no sex) it draws 1 out of the 4 R2 horses (r2 - r3 class)
15/10/07 - PBD / RClass (no sex) it draws 1 out of the 4 "R1" horses (r1 - r2 class)
19/10/07 - PBD / RClass (no sex) it draws 1 out of the 5 "R1 horses) and Polish the silver draws 3... (r1 - r2 class)
It is the system - There is a 1 in 480 chance in it's last 4 starts of it drawing the same barrier all 4 times...
This is no coincidence.. it happens too often for it to be one..
And it is no coincidence when horses in the same class race each other each week and the same horses draw inside / outside of each other.. That is the system and has nothing with placing horses....
Cullens Hope on the other note is due to placement (3yr+ C0.... PBD / 3yr...) That is good placement, Im Slippery When Wet however....
