The Reasoning
The reasoning behind this system came from my interest in athletics.
There is a very thin line between peaking and getting injured.
You can only peak for a short period of time you then have to come
back down again or risk injury. You can then then build back up again
to peak for another race in the future.

A Racehorse is without doubt a superb athlete.
So using the above principle
The idea is that a horse that has won its last race can be turned out again
quickly while still at a peak and get another race in maybe also beating the
handicapper before he can penalise him.

Obviously the trainer will not turn him out again quickly if he thinks he is feeling
the effects of his recent run ( coming down ) and risk getting injured.
hence the high amount of Non-Runners.

OPENING BANK = 100 pts.
