The Analyses screens give an overview of the contenders as well as a (somewhat) familiar energy distribution analysis. On the Original screen (upper), the Running Style column (RS) shows what collection of runners we have. The E horse #5 can get the lead from the other Earlies, slow down a bit, and no one else can catch him: he may go wire to wire.. The #1 Sustained Sprinter against faster POR than the Early horse may be given some energy credit for the positions he gained. The Tandem numbers next to the track code remind us that the #6 and #7 ran against each other. The highlighted horse names are links back to each horse's Past Performance for further investigation.

If the BL/BL screen were working, we'd look there, but it's not yet, so the Perceptor screen shows some of the same thing. Different from Speculator, I show the horse owning the best (or 100%) number in any factor column as 0.0, so we can more easily see how close or far away its competitors are. Same information, different presentation. The Perceptor Total Rank is the same. Here we see the #5 and #2 are the 2 most Early energy distribution, while the #1 is the counter-energy. The same information is shown in raw form on the Primary factors screen (TPRs), also showing that of the 2 earliest energy horses, the #5 had much the better Total Energy, or CPR.

Interesting confirming evidence of the Match Up from an energy distribution analysis angle.
