I notice that Jerry is not weighing in on this, and he would really be the only person who had a conclusive answer.  However, I will say that I believe Jerry would be capable of separating ONE race and NOT tying it to previous races if the circumstances called for it.  In fact he has been doing this on a gradual for years as the top figures have gotten progressively faster on turf and dirt, and I don\'t think this would be the case if he was totally rigid about tying the top figures together.  

If I have seen one thing for sure over the past few years it is that Jerry does not shy away from putting a huge \"outlying\" number on a race if he believes it was indeed that fast.  So I hear what you\'re saying, but I\'m not sure your point of view is a completely accurate reflection of what is going on with the numbers...
