I have a feeling that sprint chalks do better, but I have no data to support this theory. Can anyone help? TIA.

Good stuff! Although the sample for the 1 turn grass races is small....looks like it would pay to try to beat the chalk in grass sprints. Looks like the public hasn't yet caught on to these distances yet.
