Does ThoroPACE only look at each runner’s last race?
When we forecast today’s pace, it is based on each runner’s past performances during the past 24 months, giving more weight to the most recent races. In addition to considering how fast each runner has run early, we incorporate factors such as equipment, surface & post position changes.
When we spotlight a runner as controlling speed, it is based on the past 24 months worth of races, with greater emphasis on the more recent races.
When we spotlight a runner as a “Speed Runner Getting Softer Pace” it is because the runner was involved in a pace battle(s) in recent races AND is projected to get a softer pace today. When we spotlight a runner as a “Stretch Runner Getting Hotter Pace”, it is because the runner closed ground despite speed-favoring conditions in recent races AND is projected to get a hotter pace today.
Why aren’t ALL races included in the ThoroPACE – Pace Forecast?
Races that feature one or more first-time starters or first-time North American starters are not included in the Pace Forecast. Given the lack of objective data, the pace dynamics and likely leader would be a guess.
