If this isn't too obvious, does that mean Rachel pulled in 103 as well? I assumed so. I have a certain level of knowledge about various speed figures calculations, and then I call it a day. Clearly the level is somewhere along the lines of 'Wow 103>102 huh? Dunno how they got that but I sure do know math.' If two horses come down the stretch differently, but hit the wire together, does that automatically give them the same number because it doesn't really indicate nuances of that final furlong. Or does that not matter with Beyers?

Gonna have to give in and apply myself to learning more about that stuff I guess. All I know right now is dosage is soooo 1995. I end up doing it the hard way and looking at the smaller parts these guys probably throw into their system to get the number in the first place.
