Same track and surface. When I went back and included him and 2 other one race horses, the other 2 did not qualify as being within 5 points of top CPR horse or were not 1 or 2 EPR,LPR. However, the one race horse who won was within 5 of top CPR horse, #1 EPR and was top TE horse.

I would love to still get an answer to this question if anyone has one.
