Pace handicapping

For those of you that use speed ratings, how do you assess and determine the pace of a race? There are many, mostly American, methods but what seems to work best in the UK? It is often said that AW racing is predominantly a slow pace with a dash at the end so would sectionals be of better use for AW and pace more for the turf season?
 
AW racing is on the whole, a steadily run affair, (seldom slow). Although, Southwell may see more races run at a stronger gallop. Also, you are wrong to suggest that 'pace' and 'sectionals' are somehow separate entities.
