Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +14.66% off the PAX winner; Sal finishes around +9.51%, so about 5.1 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Sal is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 4.
  • Median gap went from +8.94% in the first half of these events to +10.40% in the second half.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 40% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 4 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E9, would have been 0.856 s quicker and 12 PAX places higher clean.
