Do you mean, in the example of PHA sprints, when a PHA horse ships into a sprint at another track (e.g. LRL, DEL, PEN, NYRA, FL...), a PHA sprint paceline will tend to make the horse look too fast?

If so, would you expect to find that if you slowed down the PHA sprint by some amount, it would then not be too fast? (e.g. 1 second, .5 second, 1.5 seconds, or does it vary by destination track?)

Or did you mean something different? Do any other PHA specialists have a comment about this?

And, do you mean the same applies to all distances at Canterbury, Emerald, Meadowlands - when using pacelines from these tracks when the horse ships elsewhere, lines from these tracks make the horse look too fast at many (most) other tracks?

Thanks for the clarifications.

Ted
