The variant looks to be -6 for the day, which would award a 94 to Tater Tutt and a 58 to Sweet Madness. The extra point given to SM could be explained by either a more accurate Beyer chart designed specifically for the Aqu Inner, or perhaps the figure writer made a judgement call.
Okay, a few things. First, now I feel really dumb. Second, where do you get these "raw figures"? Third, how do you get the variant at a -6 for the day? Fourth, Thanks in advance.
