I have to admit your first post of the spreadsheet was very hard for me to understand , but the last one was perfect to read for me, I am still unable to use a spreadsheet efficiently yet, but making progress.

i was wondering also how win betting may go with this, have we determined yet what wins more E or L and or 1 or 2, of course I would think no, how could we determine this, it to me would be too evenly spread out among them all, except 1 may have advantage at a track with a very dominant speed bias, maybe, but otherwise I would think even give or take 5%, but then, ... there is so many questions, I must wait and try to answer them myself, if possible, and I should be able to by now, can't wait.

thank you again for your time

Pat,
Playing the same track, same distances and same race classes, you become familiar with trainers, jocks and most important horses.
I play exacta only.
Bias, variants I care less, I leave that to the pro. I play with raw numbers.
New pace is a very interesting concept, you got 4 horses at the top of the stretch, who's more likely to win. Once you have your 4 horses you can used any form of handicapping to select your winners, also don't worry about if E1 wins more than E2 or L2 etc....it is how you discover where the value is.
Good luck
