ted's answer when I asked a similiar question

Charlie - I was about to explain that, but the conversation veered suddenly

Model File Column EE - Contender Status

10s - Primary group
11 - Key Contenders ◄ blue arrow
12 - the Selected Key Contender ◄ red arrow

20 - Secondary group

99 - Non-Contender group

The ranks exported for every factor are the same ranks you would see on the RDSS Analysis screens.

Note - the ranks do change for the remaining Primary group horses as you demote horses to Secondary (Group 20) and Non-Contender (Group 999). You would get somewhat different ranks if you made your exports before you filtered your horses into Contender Groups (i.e. reduced Primary Group horses to Top 5 whatever factor you like, or whatever criteria). That is the discussion we were alluding to in upcoming enhancements to the Model Sheet - how to see factor ranks BOTH ways: FILTERED (into Contender groups) and UNFILTERED (every horse still in Primary Group 10).
