Thanks Tim. The daily variant for the routers was similar.

I can see their times made a bit faster as HOL is probably a bit slower than Santa Anita.

For the Sprinter, my sense is that DMR is slower than Santa Anita. I can see some type of sprint to route adjutment, but since the DTV's are the same, that is a huge ITV and sprint to route adjustment.

Even though the sprinter's 3F was not good, his pace calls were substantially faster than the routers. Since I feel the track to track should have sped him up a bit more pacewise, I can't understand the adjustment.

My off the cuff sprint to route is to add a couple of ticks at the 1st & 2nd calls and stretch out the final time 6.2 secs per 1/2 furlong. I'm really not interested in the sprinter's final time but where he will be early in the race and what he might have in reserve if he doesn't have to run as fast. I could see something like 45.6 110, maybe even faster if SA is faster than DMR.

Thanks for responding.
