Speedfigures.com - How to Read the Reports

The following is a chart that shows par levels for different race types on the circuit. We use the class level from the chart for establishing an expected race par for each race. The levels shown are for older males only. Adjustments are made for female races, races restricted to Cal-bred horses, and races restricted to horses of a younger age (2 year olds only or 3 year olds only). Some fields are filled with horses that are far below par and the par for these races is often lowered by one to two levels to better reflect the quality of the competition.
