Race 4 at Melton last night is a classic example of how the 1x1 is semi-despised nowadays
The winner left the 1x1 pre bell to go to the D on his terms other than having to possibly go 3w when the speed came on and the 3w train threatened

I was musing over when 3wide train racing came into vogue (thus putting the hex on the 1x1)
I thought it may have been in the 90's with the tough horses of the Mannings

Anyone?
