I'll have to pay more attention to whether GPW shippers are over/under performing in relation to their speed figures.
Quick question though....I'm assuming you mean speed figures a la Brisnet SPD figures? but you also mention work out times in your post. Do you think they have trouble clocking at GPW too? That would also be something to look out for.

My specific mention was bc I use brisnet for my pps and they had an semi-high speed figure from gpw. The only reason I mentioned the bullet workouts, was to highlight that this horse was running 5f bullets prior to being entered in a route for the first time. I just wasn't sure why the speed figs may or may not be accurate. As for the workout clocking... I don't put much faith into accuracy... more or less just see works as a net positive. but yeah, you maybe right... I just don't know the inner workings of clocking workouts and or speed figs for that matter
The takeaway for me... is that the Morning Line maker likely uses DRF to sus out Gulfstream's line. So there might be something to be said for cross check gpw's drf figures with CJ's timeform when situations arise. If people are high on gpw figures that show flat on timeform... it may point to value on other entries. I haven't actually ventured into CJ's figures but will prob give them a try in the future.
