Hi barryt!
I am learning the match-up also. Just 40 races in with a minuscule but positive ROI. The Match-Up works IF you really concentrate and use your brains... which I dont do sometimes
Veterans can give more tips but I think projecting the pace is a very important part of the match-up, at least in the beginning.

The best way to project the pace is just follow Hats advice from the 5 steps of Match-Up. If there is clear E horse, use that. If not, use the 2nd method (FPLR).

Yes, it is critical. You use the projected pace to match-up the horse. Different projected pace, different end result in the match-up because the pacelines you choose for each contedners depends on the projected pace.
