If the last 2 races the following results occurred

Last race first 4 finishers

#7
#6
#3
#5

Two races back, first 4 finishes

#6
#2
#3
#10


Taking nothing else into consideration, what is the purest math way to rank these 6 horses shown in a match up against each other today? To be clear, I only want the prediction to be based on the top 4 finishers of the last 2 races, for example #7 won last race but did not finish in the top 4 two races back

ok i'm sorry. Good w numbers but not w math.


Let me try to ask something new

Horses A B C D E F G H race today

Last Race -- If horse A beat B and C

two races back-- If Horse B beat C and D

three races back--If Horse E beat B and D


Is there a predictive equation to rank those above for today's race? i'm only basing this on the top 3 finishes in the last 3 races even though all horses raced. I.E. Horse A won last race but did not finish in the top 3 the other two races. I am looking to rank ABCDE based on the data above..Is it possible?
