The 17 1/2 lengths is something like 9 1/4  points, by memory.

JB,

I had that calculated wrong. Just as an aside a couple of pretty solid sources have Survivalist moving forward app 3/4 of a point translated to your scale.

I gotta tell you, solid source or no, I would love to know how someone came up with a 3/4 point move on Survivalist, of all things. With the field strung out, high winds, and the only other 2 turn route hours before, seems to me you either pair him up or you go off somebody else. There ain\'t a whole lot to work with here.

The only thing very relevant,IF Survivalist moved forward, is the mind boggeling fig run by BR.Honestly, I think the track was soooo fast that it\'s impossible to have alot of faith in any fig for this race.
