• EARLY or LATE
    It's my understanding that E,EP,LP or SR is not indicative of how they will run early, or late.I use an object for that.john g

    Is the object one of Dave's or one you created?
  • Definitions = A Thesaurus of deTerminator concepts
    How would you define a good race? (in the "Deep" tab under
    "The Ask")

    “Good race.” According to Quirin:

    A “good race” typically refers to a horse’s recent performance.
    If a horse finished 1st or 2nd or 3rd or was within 2 lengths in
    a sprint or within 3 lengths in a route.
  • Definitions = A Thesaurus of deTerminator concepts
    *When I say "favorite," I do not mean the post time tote favorite. My definition of a favorite is any horse that is projected to go off at below 3/1.

    When I say, "Projected," I mean using what I call the "aML." That stands for Artificial Morning Line.
  • Understanding Reports - 001 The Basics
    "In my research I came across the work of Osborne Reynolds, a 19th century English physicist and engineer whose area of interest was “turbulence” (fluid mechanics). In 1883 Reynolds, by experimenting with pipes of varying sizes, was able to come up with a number, (now known as the “Reynolds number”) that tells engineers when a fluid system will reach turbulence."

    So how does this relate to horse racing? Dave lays it out in detail here:

    I'm on v 1.0006 now and it is working correctly.

  • I think I broke it...
    HQx file not writing again.

    I'm on version 1.0006.
    Tried reinstalling update 1.0006 and still didn't write.

    Went back to original install - 1.0000 and extracted.
    Ran update 1.0006.

    Worked.

    Any ideas on what would cause the HQx file to not write
    (file is there, just empty)??

    WOW!!

    AI is becoming frightening with how good it is getting.

    Next thing you know, someone will be taking the

    Then you really need to be scared!!

    Windows screen shot:

    Windows key - shift - S
    all 3 at the same time will give you a drag window
    on your screen. Drag it (hold down left mouse button
    and hold it down) to cover what you want.
    When you release the left mouse button, it will copy
    your box to the clipboard. Then, just paste to where you want.
    Put cursor where you want the window. Right click and then paste.

    Upgraded to 002 and still didn't work.

    Went to laptop and copied 001 full folder and overwrote
    all files on desktop.

    Tried to open HQ. HQ opened ok.

    Upgraded to002 and opened HQ. HQ opened ok.

    I'm fixed.
    Thanks Dave!!
  • I think I broke it...
    I know we haven't made any objects yet, but if you reinstall,
    will you overwrite created objects or do we need to copy and
    rename object files to keep them from being overwritten?
  • I think I broke it...
    Main desktop.

    Should I just reinstall from original version 000?

    Will upgrade 002 overwrite permissions or should I start with 000?

    Will reinstalling 000 overwrite my data files or do I need to
    redownload?

    Fixed. Not sure how or why, but I restarted

  • First timer races/BALOS/Everything else
    I use JCapper and it makes up a pace figure. I've
    never looked at it carefully to check its accuracy.

    Is it something created out of nothing? Maybe workouts
    or other siblings or pedigree?

    I skip most all races where most starters have less than 3 starts.
  • First timer races/BALOS/Everything else
    Aren't BALO's mostly predicated on pace?

    If all are first-time-starters, none have a pace number
    to compare.

    At least that is what I thought was said. Anyone else hear that?

    re: "I know it is countdown to Terminator Time"
    Darn. Forgot Dave is on Pacific time. I could have sat
    here for another hour in my underwear before major
    reconstruction was necessary.
