Richie,

Three other questions:

1. None of these horses have every gone 1 1/4 miles. So I'm assuming you use races where horses have gone 1 1/8 miles for comparative purposes--if possible. In other words, do you give precedence to horses who have run the longer races?

2. Projecting pace: this presents a problem to me because of the distance. Some of the horses are going to have a fast pace because they ran 1 1/16 or 1 mile races. Others have gone 1 1/8. I'm assuming you use a 1 1/8 race to project the pace.

3. None of the power lines selected show a horse taking the lead. Even though there are a couple of earlies in the race, especially the 6, Indian Vale. This horse will most likely go to the front.

In that case why wouldn't you use a power line that has at least one of the horses taking the lead. Or does that even matter? What am I missing?

Thanks
