From left to right:

Track, date, race number, pace figure, final figure, race shape figure

Doug,
Is there any consistant relationship between your pace figures and the moss pace figures?

For example SA March 17th race 9. You have a 92 pace and 63 final +29 race shape.

Moss Race Shape: 89+10 84+4 83+2 81

The Moss +10 alerts me to the very fast early pace but the final figure of 81 is only an 8 point differential.

I'd like to be able to spot extreme cases using the Moss numbers if possible.

I play SA almost exclusively so I've inserted the three races you listed into the trip notes in formulator. As a side note two horses of interest coming back from that race Captain Corrigan and Cut to the Front were gelded after their previous start.
