When you make your figures, do you convert beaten lengths, ground loss, and weight to time, and then use that aggregate adjustment to calculate an adjusted time used in assigning figures?
If so, do you use the same number of seconds per length (I think you mentioned 0.16) at all distances?
My overall impression is that the Equibase/photo-finish-company situation, while not as clean as you would like it or as it should be, doesn't represent a significant problem for your figures. Is that your take as well?
I'm sure you weary of discussing this topic, but if people use Equibase data for beaten lengths, how would the other guys have blown the beaten lengths in the 2004 Derby?
