True Pino...
is there a way to incorporate the actual pace of the race into the model?

take for example
ARL 8.5 furs

you find out the best LPR rating is winning...

but the average pace of the race is something like 47.3----110.4

suppose you predict a pace of 48.1----112.1

the best LPR horse is no where in site now

How do we handle something like this?
