I want to know how to compare dirt numbers to turf numbers. It appears, that a horse running on the turf with the same level of effort will earn a number 2-3 pts higher than the same effort on the dirt. Another way I can ask a related question, if horse A is consistantly running -5s on the turf, same track, same distance, etc; and horse B is consistantly running 2s at the same track, distance, etc and both are equally bred to run on the turf. What would the dirt horse run on the turf with the same level of effort as he has been giving on the dirt? Is there a rule of thumb for this conversion? I realize there are no absolutes, I am only looking for the typical outcome. Hopefully, my question is clearly stated.
