Pretty much agree with the exception of the Derby and some BC races (for foreign horses...example will a horse running on grass in Europe take to dirt?). In the Derby, you have a lot of horses who have never faced each other...breeding (RAN and other factors) and dosage can help! Belmont also...so few 12 furlong dirt races in the US, breeding can often provide a clue!
