My general question is does it change at 7F, 1M, etc. ie. 7F/2F=1st Rating 2nd Rating 7F/4F or does it change? and How about the Late Fraction? help or breakdown would be appreciated?

OFFICIAL POINTS OF CALL (EqB)
But I think what you're looking for is the actual positional calls shown in the data for:
F1 = 1st call
EP = 2nd call
SC = Stretch Call
Let's clear the easiest up first.
SC is
ALWAYS 1 furlong from the wire.
Next, let's concentrate on races shorter than 1 1/4 miles because as you get outside that, things change.
F1 is 2f from the gate in sprints and 4f from the gate in routes.
EP is 4f from the gate in sprints and 6f from the gate in routes.
Now, for some confusion...
The POINTS OF CALL do not
always match the POINTS OF TIMING.
What?
The challenges center on 5.5f races.
I shall leave it to the premier experts on this topic to explain further, but this will get you started.
