Quirin Speed Points and Run Styles

[Jeebs]

As an HSH user as well as RDSS, the Run Styles on HSH are set according to the # of speed points the horse has accumulated. For example, an E would run 7-8 points, EP would run 4-6 points, P would run 2-3 and S (or M for midpack in HSH) would be 0-1. It simplifies the run style process for me but is there really merit in doing this? Or would I achieve better long run results by trying to create a run style based on the "visual" evidence that jumps off the Form? I'll be the first to admit that run style analysis is a leak in my game and if I could better determine a horse's "style" for TODAY'S race, it would improve my handicapping so much.
