Wally several teaching members, with Docs' okay, also counted a race where the horse beat half the field as an acceptable line. I have adapted that approach since I rather err on the side of inclusion rather then exclusion. There are plenty of reasons to eliminate horses without strictly applying guidelines. Tom Brohamer was quick to point that out when applying his up close at the stretch to id contenders.
