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.
