Default Workout analysis

I'm sure you guys have touched on this at some time, but I'll ask the question:

Do you guys know of any way to get a Beyer number, or maybe I should say a Beyer equivalent, of a workout time? Most of my handicapping is numerically based, and I can't compare a time to a Beyer figure. Since apparently the guys who compute the figures don't do them for workouts, I need an equation I can apply on my own to convert workouts to approximate speed figures.

A workout is different than a race of course, and I'm not saying that the same amount of energy is used, but even for a "ballpark" comparison this might be helpful.

(Sorry guys...just noticed I posted in "Selections", meant to put in the "Paddock" since this is kind of a general question)

Thanks,
Joe
