For a start you have to ponder what it really means when a horse runs a close 3rd or a distant 2nd.

Very true. I've found a lot of work can go in to improving POT by a few measely % so the difference could be more significant than I think.
Be assured I won't be throwing out the baby with the bathwater, I'll just put in a few more tweaks based on position finished along with the other tweaks and see if it improves things. Then more likely than not abandon them as I do with the majority of things I try.
