I appreciate that you are not being perjorative, but your statement is not completely true. On the one hand, yes, if you use the individual horses' histories (as opposed to broad averages) you will have more horses running back to earlier figures. But as I explained in my post of 6/10/02 (Figure Making Methodology II), you can't artificially make the figures fit if they don't.
Incidentally, it occurs to me that the sprint/route issue by itself would account for some "variance" difference. David, it would be interesting to see what happens if you measure them separately.
