In fleet races at U. Connecticut in this breeze: an underdogs’ day (−0.07)
Underdogs’ conditions: in fleet racing here the fleet bunches up and lower-rated boats beat the seeds more often than usual.
Orderliness is how tightly a fleet race’s finishing order follows the pre-regatta ratings, relative to a typical event (0):
positive is the favourites’ day, negative the underdogs’. A value of ±0.07 means a rating gap counts about
6% less than on a typical day. This event is not a fleet race the rating model scores, so there is
no actual value for it: this is what this venue’s fleet racing history says about the breeze on the day, read off the chart at the star.
