I have found that modeling by RANKING does not work since they do not represent objective numbers that the horse created by challenging the pace of the race they were in.

Let's say total energies of a group are 160.5, 160.45, 160.42, 160.33. 160.21 as compare to rankings at the same relative level, are 160.9. 160.45. 160.01, 159.55, 159.21. The first group's rankings are skewed as directly compared to the second. Rankings are too dependent upon the range of the GROUP and cannot be compared directly.

% median, early/late balance, ESP range for the distance, etc, are OBJECTIVE
