Observations

Computed
  • Run 1 is typically +17.03% off the PAX winner; Sal finishes around +9.82%, so about 7.2 points come over the remaining runs.
  • Sal is typically within 1 point of final pace by run 5.
  • Median gap went from +9.64% in the first half of these events to +11.17% in the second half.
  • Run 1 is where mistakes happen most: 50% of run 1s were coned or DNF.
  • 3 coned runs were faster than the time that counted. The biggest, at TXR E4, would have been 0.832 s quicker and 19 PAX places higher clean.
