Big wraps on that filly, from what I've read
Now at the top of the Order of Entry for the 2017 Karaka Million

The Karaka Million is scheduled for 29 Jan,,so still time to see more contenders Sands
But she has done everything right so far
Looking forward to the race & as per the race name,,a stake of NZ$1,000,000

Good news locally
Next years Karaka Million meeting will be run on Saturday 27 Jan rather than its traditional Sunday slot
It will continue as a 6 race twilight meeting but the support card will now comprise 4 new Group races
And now 2 featured $1 million races
The 2yo Karaka Million (1200m) & the 3yo Karaka Million (1600m)

new 2yo season not far off
Santos recently won a Rosehill 2yo trial in good fashion
on my list

2019 2yo Karaka Million not far off,,Saturday 26 Jan
Once again supported by the Karaka Million 3YO Classic & another four Group status races

Gold Fever R2 Awapuni tomorrow

hello Neil
curious why you've set the max winning margin at 3.75 lengths

Ours To Keep who won the listed 2yo event at Doomben on Saturday won his previous start at Doomben by 4.30 lengths (thus not qualifying by your current rules)

a winning margin > 3.75 lengths especially on a city track, not a good thing?

similar scenario she will reign
won the inglis nursery at randwick saturday
previous start 8.3len winner kembla grange

When discussing this many years ago with a successful punting friend he suggested with automatic rules like in betting systems 4l. plus often indicates a very weak beaten field.

Different when using judgement etc.

If you find no other horses from that race where this horse won have gone on to be competitive or win then yes it is a weak field and you discount the winning lengths, but if 2 or 3 of those horses have gone on to place or win other races then its a very good 4L win.

As always its a "depends" which make the difference of a profit or a loss and it needs to be coded into your system logic or handicapping process.
