Michael-- the definition of an "S. Pace" race is one where we didn't use the final time literally. In grass races the pace is often very slow relative to the final time, and the final time is therefore not indicative-- this happens extremely often in Europe, which is why TimeForm publishes two figures for the races. The one based on "collateral form" is the right one to use, and that's what we do here.
