Beyer and Brisnet use different scales. For example, Beyer assigns more points per length at 9 furlongs. I think the two scales cross at about 100, but I've never tried to figure it out with any precision. I don't use Beyer's figures any more.
When I said that Beyer didn't have the race "that fast," I meant that he has other Derby preps faster (the Lousiana Derby and San Felipe for instance). In general, Brisnet seems to think more of the Gulfstream Derby preps than Beyer.
