Rails

I can't figure out these Turf rails. GP has enough room to have 3 good turf courses, which is great. They can move the rails out 113 feet or 0 feet, what does it mean ? I know it keeps good turf, which is great. I remember when they started it at Saratoga. They'd start wide and come in through the meet. Save grass.

Does short rails favor speed ? Is a 1 1/8 mile race the same if the rails are out 113 feet ? I don't know and the people I know don't know either. We also don't know about run-ups. We have GPS and Trakus and are skepctical of the data.
