Question for you brainiacs :) Sprint vs Route vs "other" - Pace and Cap

Dorianmode · 12-30-2017, 11:58 AM

Hi,

I'm interested if any of you experienced handicappers, or anyone really who has thought about the topic, has opinions/experience/data, (in a general sense), or has done any thinking or comments on how you handle 6.5 furlong, 7 furlong and 7.5 furlong races. Specifically, I'm wondering if you treat each length as a separate category for data keeping and racing, do you consider them (in a practical sense) as sprints or routes or "other", (even though the official definition is established).

Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
