Jim,
Can you give me some guidelines on how to use a 6F paceline for today race at 8F. The horse in question never run a route. I'm having probs matching sprint to route. Occasionally sprinter do win first time in route races.

Sprint To Route

When looking for sprinters that can stretch out, do not look for sprinters that fade in their sprint race. Look for fast sprinters, because fast sprinter beat slow routers.

Add two-fifths of a second to the first call, and use the second call and final time of the sprint line. Two-fifth of a second are added to these times. The beaten lengths will not be changed. Next, we must devise a new final time. There are two ways this may be accomplished. Look for the Router in today’s Program that matches the new sprint times and use this as the new final time, or add 6.2 seconds for each half furlong from the sprint final time.
