In the manual entry programs, you had the choice to use 6.41 for the distance (maybe it should have been 6.40 as Dick mentioned), but I don't remember any program using 6.41 automatically? Anything using a par time or 3 year best would just use the 3 year best for the 6.5 turf at Santa Anita, but I don't think the distance used was changed to 6.41.
I have no clue if the Trackmaster downloads adjust the distance.
I read or heard somewhere that it didn't make much of a difference. I've used both for manual input and it hasn't made much of a difference, especially when the program uses a meridian variant.
