RE: Branching Questions

Sorry, that's a common British idiom which obviously doesn't travel.
Racehorses vary in strength, speed, stamina and temperament; some race
horses do better in "heavier going" (i.e. a softer, muddier track), some
race faster on a dry course, and of course racecourses vary in length.
So there's no single answer to "which is the best horse", as there are
"horses for courses". Makes sense now? Which approach you take to (3)
depends on the existing customer set up. There are a number of
tradeoffs, so there's no single right answer.

Tony.

Thanks for the quick response.

However I have no clue what you mean by Horses for courses.

and I certainly cannot reply to my clients question with such an answer.
