Seeing some of the other results I included a bit more info and I think its of interest.

Dist BL Ep-Lp-TPR(Rank)
6f 2 1-4-2
6f 1 2-2-1
8d 3 5-1-5
8.5d 4 1-5-4
8.5d 5 1-5-1
9d 1 3-1-1
10d 2 3-4-3
8t 3 1-4-1
8t 3 4-2-3
11t 1 4-2-1
12t 3 4-1-4

Selection notes: I capped all dirt lines using matchup and turf races by computer alone. Any top five energy horse with a 1 rank anywhere in the TPR array was very dangerous 9/11 won. Only the turf mile and classic winners failed this test. Also within the context of the running styles and the lines and other contenders picked, a 1 rank, even if it appeared to violate visual running style, was still to be respected.
