Figures in red under PF are Racing Post Ratings (RPR) for foreign performances.
As a rough comparison,
RPR 100 = PF -15
RPR 105 = PF -26
RPR 110 = PF -38
RPR 115 = PF -48
RPR 120 = PF -63
RPR 125 = PF -75
RPR 130 = PF -87

Pace Parameters*:

*The significance of projected times based on races at 8.00f is questionable and the data should be considered accordingly.  The adjusted 9.5f times reflect the difference in track speed between Pimlico Race Course and the track at which the prep race was run.
