I'm examining the data structure layout of BRIS' Instant Chart Files (http://j.mp/88lrc6)

It has the following fields:

11. FRACTION #1 (if any) NUMERIC 999.99 6
12. FRACTION #2 (if any) NUMERIC 999.99 6
13. FRACTION #3 (if any) NUMERIC 999.99 6
14. FRACTION #4 (if any) NUMERIC 999.99 6
15. FRACTION #5 (if any) NUMERIC 999.99 6

but it seems only the Comprehensive files have at what distance each of these fractional split times were taken at.

For instance, using the Sample Instant Chart File (http://www.brisnet.com/samples/cdx1125y.zip) provided by Brisnet, I had to download the PDF charts from Equibase to see that for the first race (over 2 miles) the splits were at:

1/2 1m 11/2 13/4 Str Fin

while for the 4th race (6.5f), the splits were at:

Start 1/4 1/2 Str Fin

Is there a set system of (and a link to) what split distances are used for each race distance for BRIS Instant Chart Files?

All help is appreciated.
