126 lb. highweight Macho Uno

2000 Experimental Free Handicap

Dateline: 01/29/2001

The Experimental Free Handicap was released today and as expected Macho Uno was the highweight with Point Given right behind him. The ratings are based on their performance as a 2 year old in 2000 and these combined with their dosage index have been found to be an indicator of their performance in the Kentucky Derby. All horses with a dosage under 4.0 and weighted within 10 pounds of the highweight are termed dual qualifiers (highlited in green) and they have been shown statistically to have the best shot at a good performance in the Kentucky Derby. For a more detailed look at the EFH, you can get the full list for colts and fillies from the Blood Horse. They also have a list of past highweights and an Adobe Acrobat PDF file with expanded info on all the horses rated.
