When calculating factors for each paceline(s) such as E1, E2 etc has anyone ever experimented with a metho Dave calls synthetic pacelines? Dave maybe you could add a brief explanation of the synthetic paceline calculations? That way I won't lead anyone astray. I have to say that synthetic calculations have led me to many lone speed opportunities especially in maiden race. — Tony Kofalt
Interesting to see what Dave says about composite pace. — Tom

Then we take those 13 and average them to make Composite F1. — Dave Schwartz
Let's say a horse stops and is vanned off, for example. Do I assume correctly that you would not use any computations from that race? It seems to me that if, for any reason, a number like total Energy cannot be computed, i would not use any computation. — RanchWest
No, the closest thing I have done is similar to the RDSS CSR rating. CSR uses a Fibonacci allocation for the speed ratings of the last 4 races. It's a somewhat helpful number. So, I did the same thing with the BRIS pace figs. It gives me another way of looking at pace. As I have mentioned before, I am always looking for whether a number is real or phoney and this gives me another point of comparison. — RanchWest
Sadly, you're more compulsive than me. ROTFLMAOHeck, we've got 4,000 factors per horse, so we sort of have everything. LOL — Dave Schwartz
Perhaps I am missing your point, though — Dave Schwartz
My point was that maybe the horse has a great f1, but later in the race stops. Would you consider the great f1 or would you toss the race entirely? — RanchWest
I came across a horse that might be relevent to not only paceline selection, but eliminating loe priced horses as weel. Today at Tampa Bay, R8, the 2-1 ML favorite looks suspicious at first glance. He dropped in class after a good race returning from a layoff, but not only didn't he win, he ran a significantly lower Beyer figure. Today, he is rising back up in class. — Tom
