Okay, from now on, only figures on high class races at high class tracks.
The problem with the Gulfstream race was that there was no data to go on to make figures. You couldn't tie it to the surrounding races because of the changing track speed, and you had no history of the horses within the races to work with.
We make figures for Beulah just as we do for the other "satellite" tracks- which is to say, the same way we do for the major tracks we publish, except we don't have an observer. We use a good computer program developed by Paul to work out ground loss, and it's pretty tight. You can tell which is the computer generated ground- it's italicized. The figures made this way can certainly be off by a point in either direction, occasionally more.
We don't sell data for Beulah because there is no demand.
