Yes, it is the variant that is at the beginning of the yellow manual and repeated at the beginning of Follow Up #1 that I was referring to. From my readings, the Median and Meridian Variants are two names for the same thing. There is a raw variant produced by a Par-generator or Variant program and then it gets a race-class and a track class adjustment made to it before it is put into an open adjustment on the main computer program. I know all this stuff might be obsolete now that there is an RDSS program but I'm trying to learn all the basics and what the computer's actually doing... to REALLY understand the handicapping procedure and theory.
