Adjusted Fractions show your horse and the race leader at quarter 1, 2, 3 and the final race time, adjusted for the speed of the track! Adjusted Fractions take the official fractions of a race and adjust them based on the speed of the racetrack that day. In the same way that Speed Figures tell you what a final time really means, adjusted fractions tell you what the interior splits of a race really mean.

Adjusted Fractions are for you if you answer “yes” to the following questions:

• I am the type of horseplayer who refers to speed figures to truly understand horses’ official final times of their races
• I am the type of horseplayer who uses the internal fractions in horses’ running lines to better assess their previous performances, or to project the dynamics of today’s race

By clicking on the Customize menu at the top of your Formulator PPs, you can set your preferences to display the Adjusted Fractions for:

• The race leader at each point of call (fractions on the left-side of the past performance)
• The horse’s PPs you are handicapping (fractions on the right-side of the past performance) 

Note: For printing purposes, you choose between either the “Leader/Winner” or “This Horse” option, and your choice will populate underneath the official fractions.

Here’s an example of Adjusted Fractions in action:

Leader at each point of call:

1st quarter

2nd quarter

3rd quarter

Final time

The horse’s PPs you are handicapping at the same points of call

Tip: Adjusted Fractions use the same color-coding as TimeformUS Pace Figures

All of the factors in TimeformUS Pace Figures are used, including:

• Official Split Times
• Timing from Video in extreme cases
• Careful assessment of track speed
• Run-up for each distance in each race
• Weight carried by the horse

Then, the fractions for all horses at all tracks are effectively harmonized to a single scale by the TimeformUS Pace Figure team. Questions? Contact us at formulatorhelp@drf.com
