Caterpillar's Murmur

Uninteresting

(SAT) March 14th, 2026

9:13 p.m. I did say the inner post drawers will be advantaged. Once I started choosing my candidates, though I realized it was hard to find horses in inner posts that might achieve better results than their previous races. The front runners are mostly concentrated in inner posts, so the position battle can get fierce, though that doesn't necessarily mean that the pace would get tight. And because most of them have only experienced races in shorter distance with smaller fields of horses, it's hard to think they could survive the pushing and squeezing. They've only just started racing after all.

I think I can trust Ask Edinburgh, but I'm not really sure about the others currently remaining on my list, to be specific, Last Smile, Meiner Cymbeline, Crepuscular, Mr Right, and Audacia. Basically, I'm rating the front runners highly for outer post drawers.

The win odds I've been looking forward to see hasn't changed much BTW. Crepuscular's win odds is going back and forth between 2.0 and 1.9. Duh, uninteresting.
