That was not my point, Bobphilo. This was:
You were giving this lecture:
"You know better than using pace figures for 1-turn races at shorter distances to determine a pace par for the longer 2-turn marathon Belmont distance. As this was the only race on dirt at the distance you have to see how the pace affected the horses in this race and horses running on the pace did worse than the closers."
OK, why did you write this? What was your point?
