If it's an average pace, the front-runner will win if he has the biggest burst of speed.

That wasnt an average pace, and if you dont know that then this is a waste of time.
Like I said, look at the charts and check out the pace in teh Secretariat and Beverly D. This pace was a freakish fluke like none Ive ever seen.
