Since the All Sim Jockey Club is based upon the program, Stretch Drive, the results come out a little different than your traditional randomized results. Don't let this turn you away! They are rather easy to understand once you've gotten used to them!
RESULTS FOR RACE # 1, 6 furlongs, Maiden ($15,000)
Order of Finish 1/4 1/2 3/4 Stretch Final Finish

The first part, "RESULTS FOR RACE #1, 6 furlongs, Maiden ($15,000)" will tell you all about the race. This particular race was the first to run this day, was at six furlongs, had a purse of $15,000, and was for maiden horses.
The next line is the headings for the next part. If you look directly down from 'Order Of Finish', you'll see how the horses placed. In this particular race, Comin To Town finished first, over Primarily Sour. The random fractions and words after that are what times are normally clocked at in races (that being a quarter of a mile in, a half mile in, and the three fourths, depending on the distance of the race).
Let's review how Comin To Town performed.
At the quarter, he was two lengths ahead, in first place. That's what 1) 2 means. 1) -- this will be the place, 2 -- the distance (in lengths) that the horse is ahead of the next horse. At the half, Comin To Town was still in first, but was leading by a length and three quarters. At the three fourths, Comin To Town was still in first and still leading by a length and three quarters. In the stretch, the horse maintained it's lead of a length and three quarters but in the final, the horse increased it's lead to two and one quarters length and won.
The last bit, 'Winning Time', is in seconds. This particular race was 1:48.6
