FTL, yes I realize that the 5th race was a turf race and is only comparable on distance,but the question was asked how could you get this horse as a contender.
Doc always warned us about using turf to dirt and vice versa. He said that if you did use a line like this one to check the speed ratings and make sure that it was at least 5 points better than the dirt sr ratings.
One thing I think you missed was that this race was part of a pic 4 sequence in a free contest. I would never consider playing this type of race for the exact same reasons that you stated above.
It is because of this type of questionable races that I personally do not like to enter contests. Some players do like this type of races because they are chaotic and will give a better chance for a higher payoff.
Each of us(I hope ) has found the type of races where we excel at and at least have the opportunity to supplement our incomes.
