You do make the assumption as a starting point, and barring something unusual that particular one will hold up-- it's a much different situation than with 1 and 2 turn races, especially since there are longer one turn races at Belmont. But ultimately you make your final decisions based on the horses, and anyone who tells you otherewise is talking nonsense. Whether you do it off the horses in one race or the horses over a long period of time (creating an average), there is no other way to do it than by using the horses.
