Do you base and/or designate running style based on a horse's running position, or go by the lengths (ahead or beaten) at the first call?

IMO..."running position" means nothing unless it's related to the lengths behind the leader. The horse that's running 2nd but is 10 lengths behind the leader can't be called a "presser/stalker"...nor can a horse that's running 7th while within 3 lengths of the lead be called a "closer".
