While in concept I totally agree with you about reviewing paceline selection, let me put this infront of you:

With automatice line selection based on "best of last three ..." In races with more than 7 horses there were 406 races where the winner was in the top three CSR AND in the top three Rx. So the bet would be $2 x 3 horses, total $2436. The return for this bet was $3,298.70, a profit of $862.70 and an ROI of +35.4%.

When both are top two, the profit on 248 races $658.40, ROI +66.4%

To put this in perspective this number of wins is approximately 10% of the study, so there is about one play per card.
