If I understand correctly when using your pace figs a 75 for a half mile in a sprint equals a 75 for a half mile in a route. Does that mean that the half mile par times are equivalent ?

It took quite a while, but I came up with a formula/adjustment to equalize sprint pacefigs and route pacefigs. A horse who runs a 75 pacefig in a route has theoretically run exactly as fast as a horse who runs 75 in a sprint. Of course, route pacefigs are typically slower simply because jockeys aren’t usually asking their horses for as much speed. Par times are very different for sprints and routes.
