[JimmyJet]

Reason for Presious Passion to Win is see her as lone speed against all others who are closers....Gloria de Campeao may test her for lead but if not see wire to wire win.

Race Update

Turf Condition: Yielding
Jockey Changes: None
Scratches: #9 Recapturetheglory

 

[oldmanTED]

Once again it appears that Presious Passion will be the pace setter. Liked her last time out, but she seems to not take to a yielding turf so not sure she can wire this field. Looking for the closers to battle down the stretch.

#6 Gino Ponti (Win & Place)

Good luck everyone!

We could likely help you with some of these if you could put the whole context of the statement where these statements are being used.

Thank you. Unfortunately, although I know some of these terms, it appears what you are reading has put numerical values on each of them. It is a guide I am not familiar with. Perhaps other members of our Horse Racing Forum have seen this before and can help you. Personally, I read the Daily Racing Form and have not seen this before.
