Einstein ran well at Santa Anita but I think earned a pretty poor figure, 103, horses in the past on dirt dont win that race with 103's.
This last line contradicts your whole statement. If you believe, as you say you do, that synthetic figures are 5-10 points lower than dirt figures then Einstein's 100 Beyer is pretty decent, once you kick in the added points plus a couple more for him being a "stalker."
