The AI has reinvented NewPace!
And made it better!
Howard Sartin said that to win with pace handicapping you had to do 3 things:
1. Pick good contenders
2. Pick good pacelines
3. Interpret the model.
(He actually said "interpret the readouts" but it eventually changed to "model.")
With The deTERMINATOR you do none of that!
Every race boils down to two races within each race:
1) The battle of the Early horses
2) The battle of the late horses.
Then a duel between the survivors in the final furlong.
What the AI has done is created 4 running styles:
EARLY (1st call)
EARLY PRESSER (2nd call)
LATE PACE (not 1st call)
STRETCH RUN (After EP)
Each of those running styles has FOUR different AI objects.
1) 1st call
2) 2nd call
3) stretch call
4) last furlong
As it turns out, the inventor of New Pace (me) misunderstood what "Early vs. Late" actually means.
I assumed that it would be 1st fraction vs Stretch Run.
But the AI has produced objects that make it quite clear that EP (2nd call) can be ignored completely.
Further, it has shown us that every horse has the potential for both Early and late.
