  • Aug 19 - Been Passing Races All Morning...
    Won my 1st two bets - BTP03 & SAR02.

    Funny thing is that in both races I had 2,6,7.

    Imagine that when I noticed this, I was sure I'd made a mistake - but the horses were coming to the wire at SAR.
    Finished 1-2-3

    LOL

    You work hard at this, Jimmy.
    You deserve it.
  • Did you all see this?


    Interesting read.
    People have complained but I don't think they understand what's going on.

    There's a thread on PA which has been going strong for a while now.
  • About UNDERSTANDING Columns...
    Several nice winners yesterday using the the 26,000 AI-based columns made up of 30 factors chosen by the AI engine specifically for the TYPE OF RACE (based upon how the AI sees "race type."). 150 factors (also known as COLUMNS) in one object.
    GPX01 - #3 $18.80
    GPX03 - #4 $8.80
    GPX05 - #9 $5.40
    GPX06 - #5 $9.80
    ELP01 - #6 $13.26
    ELP05 - #10 $6.80
    ELP07 - #8 $22.72
    ELP08 - #8 $11.48
    TDN01 - #3 $6.20
    TDN03 - #4 $7.00
    TDN08 - #4 $4.60
    Plus 8 Exactas using the TOP 3 contenders. Two more exactas if you went 4 deep.
    Rules: No Turf races, no races with FTS's, no races with two d1's or two L1's or a d1/L1.

    You guys really are missing it.

    It is pretty amazing, isn't it?
  • About UNDERSTANDING Columns...
    I didn’t think that those factors were available. Just wanted to make sure I wasn’t missing something. For what it is worth, I’m finding that the seg3 r2 and r3 are powerful.Rick Irvin

    All of those are available as factors - a in some very creative ways.
  • About UNDERSTANDING Columns...
    ↪Jeff Capper are there factor numbers for abPace, perhaps, abRX, Abruzzo, and Pen that we can put into an object? If so, I would be willing to build an object to test how it performsRick Irvin

    No.
    Sorry.
  • Horizontal Wagering
    Perhaps with a little help from Dave or Ponyplayer I will figure out how to post a screenshot on this board and explain how simple my thought process is.Tony Kofalt

    We have a very tiny amount of storage space allocated here - like a total of 15GB.

    We had a founding user who insisted upon putting up 500mb PDFs of his handicapping every day. Imagine that he ate about 10GB in 3 weeks. Certainly not sustainable.

    When he wouldn't stop, I removed the files, and changed the settings. One must have a place of their own to upload and then share - unless your name is Dave or Brian.

    Oh, then I fired the member.
  • Horizontal Wagering
    Four of them won, same trainers, with huge Beyer jumps. Classic Rock from 60 to 91. Back-to-back 17-1 and 3.8-1 winners at Monmouth returned only $25.60 on a $2 Double, way less than the 1st leg winner. Another Fair Hill was supposed to run at PID today, but was a late scratch.
    So your winning selection may become part of racing history.

    I saw that on PA.
    Here's the link to that discussion for anyone interested.

  • v30001-THE 88% - Finding the Race Within the Race (Video)
    Dave, in the session you described that there were only 4 races out of 16 where you used the 88. So if the 88 is so important, I'm not clear as to what you are doing in the other 12 races. It seems that in those cases you are using the 88 to determine that we should not be using the 88 due to that particular race structure. Is that correct? I think I need a better understanding of "race structure".Jeff Capper

    Really excellent question.

    Think about the ways that were introduced last night to ELIM one or more of the bottom horses...

    @ponyplayer called it. "The race within the race... within the race..."
    Think of it like breaking the log jam at the BOTTOM to create a new race.

    Or... consider @Jim Pommier and how he has (historically) used his PSR objects.

    Not saying you must use PSR.
    Consider that WHALE-friendly objects push winners to the top... and losers to the bottom.

    So, imagine somewhat top-driven objects that will do the opposite... push LOSERS to the BOTTOM... which allows you to pick a horse or two who are already NEAR the bottom... and eliminate them with reasonable confidence.

    Then you apply Brian's idea... Race within a race... within a race... within a race.
  • Horizontal Wagering
    This is why I look for a single to wager - it keeps costs down and I can still make a little bit of money if all D horses come in.Bill Rudnicki


    I don't see how that strategy can possibly produce long-term profit.
  • Horizontal Wagering

    This is a great topic - and one I won't be much help with.

    Not being a Horiz player, my best guess is that you must do some studying to figure out an optimum ticket structure for your particular style

    For example... using 4 dL-horses would probably be a waste of money.
  • discussion re: THE 88% - Finding the Race Within the Race
    You will have the remaining horses recalculated
    as-if the d and L were never in the race. Unmarking
    and recalculating does not remove them. Their numbers
    are still lurking.
    ponyplayer

    I believe is correct.
    They just never load if you uncheck the d and the L.
  • discussion re: THE 88% - Finding the Race Within the Race
    Question:
    We can unclick the d and L before we Fire Core AI. Does that produce the same result as marking and removing them? Or are they lurking in the background and therefore messing up the "new race"?
    Dale Oldham

    In theory that should work.
    Give it a try.
