The idea behind it is to let people know quickly if the race set up for front runners or for closers, and weather the race played out the way that it predicted.
You can still have a fast pace that favored front runners and a slow pace that favored closers.
I have found it pretty reliable based on my handicapping before and after races using Timeform my guide for pre-race pace analysis.

Right each part of the horses DRF PP is important to someone.
some think the BEYERS are useless.
Some think the Tomlinsons are useless. (if anybody thinks that look at the 10th race at aqueduct this past saturday--Thanks art)
some think the pace designations are useless.
some think the Timeform pace figs are worthless
Useless to one handicapper doesnt mean useless to all.
you as a handicapper must determine the value of each piece of information available in the DRF.
