In theory, what they are giving us is actual time of each horse, expressed as "lengths". I repeat, in theory. Without having more information, which I may or may not be able to get, it's hard to know if they are executing correctly.
In other words-- you may see a race where you are sure a horse gets beat 8 lengths, but because of a slow pace they are coming home very fast, and the chart will show him only getting beat 6 because the elapsed time was only 6 times (fill in time value of a "length").
