I went to there site and looked it up....according to their calculations...at 12 furlongs, five pounds equals exactly 2.40 lengths.

That gets adjusted into their figures....as does their belief that one path of ground on the turn equals one length.

that equals out pretty well then. Rags was 4-5 wide the whole trip and Curlin was 2-3?
