In fact, I have designed my own horse selection system in a way that I calculate the horses with fastest running time for the same distance in the current meeting and rank them after taking into account the increase/decrease the weight. Besides, I also calculate their last 400M speed and rank them. As a result, I will get the sequence of the horses indicating their best possible performance in the coming race. However, I can't calculate the impact of change of weight affecting the speed of the last 400M of each horse I rank. Besides, I guess for front-runners and back-finishers, the effect of the weight affecting the last 400M could be different. The reason why I emphasize on the last 400M is that the speed of each horse in last 400M decides which horse is the winner irrespective of the race being a slow run or fast run race.
After repeated reasoning, I conclude for a front-runner, the impact of the increase of weight is MORE DISADVATAGEOUS than a late-finisher in a normal pace and fast pace race . The reason is that for a front-runner, she not only has to stand pressure with other other front-runners but also carrys more weight resulting in the speed of her last 400M slower as she utilizes her strengh in previous
sections already. For a late-finisher, the situation is just opposite. She spends
less energy in the previous sections as she runs comfortably and stays in the back.
As result, she benefits from running in the last 400M as she still has engery to compete
.
Conclusion: For normal pace and fast pace races, we have to bet on late-finishers with weight increased say 5 lbs rather than put your bet on a fast-runner with the same weight increasd say 5 lbs if their previous performance of the same distance
more or less same. For slow run races, chances for both types runners become
almost same as the disadvantage of a slow pace race becomes an advantage of a customary pace exerted by the front-runner. Brothers, any comment?
