It's understandable that the number, and its massaging, is important to those making it. Let YOUR OPINION have precedence over the number. It happens to be correct here. Who cares if the number confirms it?

because betsy is every bit an ap indy fan, probably a bigger fan than jcs is of giant's causeway, and thinks music note is getting dissed with a small number.... i thought music note looked good, and can't say that with a clean break and trip that proud spell would have won--can't say that i've seen anyone suggest a different finish with a different trip.
