However, considering the relative contribution of muscle power to sprint and longer distance racing we subdivided the elite Group race winning animals into those that had won their best (most valuable or highest grade) race over distances ≤8 f (furlongs, n = 51) and those that had won their best race over distances >8 f ( n = 35) and found highly significant associations [Note: 1 furlong = 1/8 mile = 201.2 meters].
