Data Scope and Glossary
In May 2025 we introduced sectional times into Proform*
We enhanced the raw data to produce many new metrics and created out own par sectional times and finishing speed %'s.
The par times, which are adjusted for ground conditions, allow us to create upgrade figures in pounds for each runner in every section.
In turn this allows us to create pounds and lengths behind the winner and a theoretical actual finishing position!
We have created an excel document explaining all the data fields you can see in Proform, plus how far back the historical sectional data goes and the data tolerances we used to block obvious data errors coming into our database, you can download this on the following link:-
