Wind 5 to 15 MPH NW
Another day when a lot of the best running was done outside but enough horses ran well towards the inside to suggest the track was fair.
Saturday, January 11

Wind 15 to 25 MPH NW
While a lot of the best running was done outside, horses ran well inside too, suggesting the track was fair.

Wind 15 to 25 MPH NW
The rail was definitely a good place to be, and a likely advantage, but we saw enough horse run effectively outside to suggest it wasn’t a strong bias. Still, worth following.

The track played fairly.
Saturday, January 4
Fast
Clear
33
Wind 15 to 25 MPH NW
Another day where the riders avoided the rail, and it was reasonable to consider the rail to be off, but the 8th and 9th races refuted that, with horses running well on the rail. Likely a fair track.
Friday, January 3
Fast
Clear
37
Wind 15 to 25 MPH West
Like many recent days, much of the best running was done off the rail, but horses ran well enough inside to suggest the track was fair. It seems, more often than not, for whatever reason a lot of riders stay away from the inside, which does not necessarily mean the rail is bad.
Thursday, January 2

Wind 15 to 25 MPH West
The track played fairly.
Wednesday, January 1
Good
Cloudy
49
Wind 15 to 25 MPH West
The track played fairly. The rail was good but not an obvious advantage.
