I hear you phil. They think they are doing everyone a favor by injecting so much subjectivity, but they are making it impossible to interpret the figures. When you had a cut and dried method taking the final time and adjusting for a variant, you left room for creativity in handicapping. Now they want to adjust for so many different factors, somebody using figures with trip handicapping adjustments is totally lost. Just stick to the beaten lengths scale and let me do the work.
