I am not sure I am buying that Gareth - if both horses met at 10f ..then using only speed as the criteria here - they should dead heat..but..the lbs you are adding extra to the 12f horse makes it look a faster horse..how can it be faster?..it only looks faster because you added a non speed related rating.

i don't really see how its harder to earn a standard time at further.

but you agree that both horses are the same speed figure - and yet one gets a bigger figure than the other - a figure based on nothing to do with speed.

its an interesting one isn't it?
