The ground notations on Ragozin only refer to the second turn (ours show both), and the path notation they show means 4 path OR WIDER-- one could be 4 and one 6, if I understand it correctly. Whether they have them different from each other on that turn or wrong for the other I don't know, but they have SS wrong on one of them, because the relationship of numbers with EM is wrong if they traveled the same distance (equal ground loss), and wrong vs. Funny Cide as well, which makes the problem with SS-- the other two are right relative to each other. And since it should be obvious from just looking at these horse's sheets that Ragozin didn't tie the variant to EM or FC (he couldn't, they ran new tops, which is correct), we know he tied it to SS, which means the figures for the others in the race are wrong.

By the way, you better believe that before I stuck my neck out on this I had Litfin go back and review the ground.
