Thanks in advance...

Since I am asking questions...is there a vital factors read outs in Rdss?
Hi LS,

This screen is the 'Bottom Line/Betting Line or BL/BL' screen - a sort of Summary screen showing all the 'vital factors' which are components of or tangential to the Line Score / Odds Line. All the factor ranks shown are derived from adjusted times (adjusted by a Daily Track Variant and Inter-Track Variant), not raw times or segments.

Normally, race times are also projected to today's distance, but as you point out, I calculated this race as if it were 8.5 furlongs instead of the actual 9 furlongs. Because of the abundance of Early Speed horses (6 out of 9, by my reckoning, with 26 Quirin Speed Points between them!), I wanted to do a raw time Projected Pace matchup to see which of the Earlies were throw-outs and which ones I needed to analyse further by the energy-based readouts. But I couldn't do that with all the horses having run 8.x furlong races and today's race being 9f (because the call times did not line up). So I just changed the distance to 8.5 f so I could use that tool.

That analysis then told me the race 'might' run Other Than Early, but also that the 2 best Earlies (#8 and #11) could not be counted out. The 2 best OTE's were: #2 and #5.

BTW, only 1 horse had ever run 9f before - guess who - #2 Wicked Strong, the winner (and finished very well, and at AQU!).
