Yes, they do the figures to the 1/4 point. 1, 2 and 3 indicate .25, .50, and .75 when they appear next to and above the main figure.

The Introduction page at the website gives you a glossary and explains how many lengths each point is worth, at different distances. 1 point = 1 length at 5 furlongs, and 2 lengths at a mile and a quarter. You can extrapolate in between.

But the difference between a 5 and a 4.75 is negligible, in my opinion, anyway.
