I wonder if any of the U.K. PPs include these splits?

To answer my own question, a Google search shows there are several PP providers in the U.K. which include sectional timing, including the English version of Timeform which give the last 3 furlongs split.
Another provider (At The Races) even color codes each split the same way TFUS does. Sounds like something similar to the pace pattern analysis that cj is studying now.
I wonder if this is a TRAKUS-like system or just timing the race at each furlong?
