Final update...
I contacted Equibase myself and asked them about the missing times in the chart data for BTP 06-30-2017 R7.
Here is a cut and paste taken from their email back to me:
"With the rail at 20 feet and the poor video from Belterra, getting accurate race times would be nearly impossible."
Can't say I blame them.
Im going to download the BTP0630F.zip file and include it in my next db build routine.
Going forward, as horses that ran in this race come back to race again - I'll treat their running lines same as I normally do when pieces of the data are missing (just like I would for fog, etc.)
Suggest you guys do the same.
