Got it.
You also need some objective measurement of the strength of the field to go along with it. You can either look fractions and final time or the quality of the horses in the race (comparative class) and compare similar trips within the race, but just the positions and running lines are not enough even if they have some predictive ability. Ideally you'd be looking for horses that ran well against the general flow of the race.
