Question About PQ Stakes Data Base

Postby Patuxet » Sat Dec 20, 2008 10:11 am

When adding stakes race information to the data base the following about the winner are requested: Owner, Trainer, Jockey, and $ To Winner - plus (Track) Condition. Yet when one looks up a race (Reports/Stakes Races) that information is not included. Is there some way to access it? If not, what was the purpose of requesting it?

Only Miles knows the real answer. Were I to hazard a guess, I'd say he intended to have that info be visible at some point, but didn't end up including it in the chart.

If you want to see what, if any, optional info was entered for any given race, go to the winners list, right-click on the date and select 'edit year'.

Thank you, Lucy. I suspected that you'd know.

Thanks Lucy, I've wondered about that too from time to time.

Is Miles Kaiser Soze? (I really hope you're familiar with The Usual Suspects). Perhaps he's the great and powerful Oz. It's been a long time since I've interacted the the ol' chap on PQ. I've never seen him in the same room as either Carrot Top or Brad Pitt (not that I've ever seen Miles at all) but given Brad's latest time constraints with kids and Angelina, my suspicions grow every day that Miles has, in fact, been traveling the world and living in a French chateau from time to time with Angie and the kids.
