I just began looking at the TG figures and reading some of the forum postings. I had a few questions regarding the figures, etc. I couldn't ascertain by reading the introductory material.

1) What is meant by the term "Live Ground"

2) Are the figures in the sheets actually adjusted for today's weight carried?
In other words, if a horse earned a 10 in his first race while carrying 120 lbs, if he is slated to carry 120 today, the sheet will show a 10 fig for that first race. But if he is slated to carry 115 today, will the fig in his sheet be a 9?

3) Ground loss...I know it is notated as 3w3w, etc. Is the figure adjusted for this, or is it just a notation. example 2 horses exit the same race in which they dead-heated (earning the same time based figure). If horse A shows 3w and Horse B shows 1w, will horse B show a sheet figure 2 faster than Horse A?

4) Documentation says that at 5f 1 length = 1 point, at 10f 2 lengths = 1 point. So I assume that at 6f 1.2 lengths = 1 point, 8f 1.6 lengths = 1 point, etc.
In relation to this, is there a time value associated with a point. In other words, assuming the variant remains constant, does a 6f race in 1:10.50 earn a smaller number than a 6f race (same day, same variant) run in 1:10.70? If so, is .20 seconds equal to 1.2 points at 6f (as is a length)?

Sorry for what may be review questions for most of you, i am just trying to familiarize myself with this product.

Thanks.
