Who can run against the fulcrum

DSL

As Ted explains there is no bug.
The fulcrum is very easy to find on RDSS I can't see how Ted could make it easier, unless you wanted RDSS show you the fulcrum automatically which to me would make the readout useless.

All you need to do is select the last line for each horse.
Then look at the EPR pace of race
Now who ran less than 5 BL at the 2nd call and final time ? against that fastest time.

In the Florida Derby
The fulcrum horse was the 110.1 which the #1 Wildcat
and # 6 General ran against

The Fulcrum is just a tool. The actual POR for the Florida Derby
was 112

What is interesting is, here are the horses in the FD
who have run cometivily against a POR of 110.1 all did well the 2 who could not match did not win or finish in the money,

Horse1 Yes Place
Horse2 No
Horse3 Yes
Horse4 Yes 109 Win
Horse5 Yes
Horse6 Yes Snow
Horse7 No
Horse8 Yes in sprints of 7 and 6 furlongs

The fulcrum is not so much a good thing for thaose who
can run against it, Its more of a negative gauge to horses who can't match the fulcrum.
Like horses 7 and 2 and questionable horses (from sprints) like the 4 and 8
