If you have not received an invoice you probably have changed your email address and did not notify us.

Yes, the system is working!]

ALL billing invoices have been sent.

If you didn't get one, please
1. Check your SPAM folder.
2. Write privately and let me know.

It was sent to you this morning around 11am pacific time.

Shocking how difficult this is.

@Sherri says you should all have invoices before noon, pacific.
Will advise when they've been sent.

(She's been battling this all the way.)

Same way.
He moved for the first time in the final furlong.

Yes, that's always a concern. LOL

Hello Dave
1. Does a program like this help a tournament player?
2. I saw a recent video about reports and it reminded me of hsh program. I didn’t fair well with hsh due to its complexity (basic computer experience here) is the determinator more straightforward or does the user need to generate their own factors and weights, etc. ? Is it out of the box ready? Thxs! — john

Yes, in fact that is covered a bit in a couple of the videos.
Three things of special interest
1. CHAOS RACE LEVEL (0-5)
2. BALOs (Bet Against Low-Odds horses)
3. AI BEST HORSE
_______________
1. CHAOS RACE LEVEL 4s & 5s indicate that one should look for big payoffs.
_______________
2. BALOs indicate that there is a strong favorite who should under-perform.
_______________
3. AI Best Horse (Odds Ranges)
This tells which horses fit the race by odds ranges.
_______________
The most powerful race for *tournament longshots would be a CHAOS RACE with a BALO.
What's a tournament Longshot? It's a longshot that you can actually handicap to the top.

_______________
In the graphic below, I've taken the projected longshots in the race and indicated how they rank in their appropriate odds categories. Typically you are looking for horses with 1s and 2s.



What the AI trained on could best be described as:
"If a horse in the 17/1 up category won the race, what factors would likely point to the winner?"

Obviously, we are not getting factors like "best speed rating ever" because such horses don't typically pay $36 and up.

Instead, it uses some pretty esoteric stuff. Things like:

• Time-Decayed Stretch Gain.
• Average Positions Gained from 2nd call to the wire.
• Regression Speed Ratings - Low (The worst speed rating the horse could be expected to run.

Also interesting to note that those 1s on the screen indicated that they were ranked #1 or #2 in the field, not just among the longshots. IOW, they were better than the favorites.

I guess I answered a question that wasn't asked.
Sorry.

I really like Jim Cramer's work on this stuff.
Found it quite revolutionary.

My adaptation of it is to ask a question:
"When did the horse first challenge for the lead?"
"Challenge" is defined as being within one length.

What we call these really doesn't matter.

Hope this helps.

Check out the video list for the Zoom Link

I'll give everyone at least an hour warning.
Thinking like 2:30 or so.

Of course!
I’ll post it on DET videos

Not so fast...
Had a thought.
I'm actually working on making new reports TODAY.
How about I go LIVE later today and record impromptu while I create?

I'll post the time ASAP.

Thank you. In the other thread, Jim Parker talked about HSH Objects (now will be Reports). Could you also please provide a sample HSH Object with say 1, 2, 3 factors. Nothing fancy. This will help me visualize what those are all about as well. — Jim Pommier

If I work on this now instead of during the onboarding, I wind up doing it twice.

Seems like a better use of resources if I stay the development course.

I'm trying to put something together around the "What you need is:". You said you came up with about 40 Handicapping Flips. It's sounds like we can then pick two that we like that will fit with our core method of handicapping without any overlap? Can you please provide an example of 1 or 2 Handicapping Flips so I'm on the right track (visualize). — Jim Pommier

Jim, this is a wonderful question.
So excellent that it demands a quick video.
Let me see if I can't record one tomorrow.

If you can improve on HMI, I bow to your greatness! — ponyplayer

Oh, how you play to my vanity! LOL
(Apparently, I am still sooo shallow. LOL)

I think that HIM is the mathematical best ever - and perhaps the best possible solution for a positive expectancy player.

However, I use something else. I'll be sure to teach it to everyone that wants to learn.

Last, as it pertains to 3 below and the 4 Pace Objects. Why use Pace to test, and why not Speed Figures? — Jim Pommier

1. Speed Ratings simply are not even remotely close to being as good as the AI Pace Objects.
2. NHT - NOBODY HAS THIS - (but everybody has speed ratings).

See if I have this right. The deT is using AI to start-- determine the Best Horse(s). Then to determine if the Best Horse is a BALO or not we're using AI's four (4) Green Pace Objects. So at this stage in the process deT is using "pace" versus other factors? So is the deT different than what HSH was doing above? — Jim Pommier

That answer was meant for Saratoga, who does not have anything within several magnitudes of DET to answer his questions.

Please forgive if it sounds like I am nitpicking.
You might have the meaning right, but I need to be sure, lest you or others are confused by my lack of a straightforward answer.

1) The BALO flip tells you when there is a... well, a BALO or not.
2) The AI Best Horse flip gives you HIT RATES and/or VALUE.
3) However, the AI Best Horse also serves a distinct purpose within the BALO, but only as it pertains to the BALO candidates.

The BALO PROCESS includes:
1. AI LINE Magnitude=1 to select the BALO Candidates.
2. Then, the AI BH Mag is used to test the BALO Candidates.
3. Finally, the 4 Pace Objects are also used to test the BALO Candidates.
(As we've discussed, there are some rule changes for E and EP objects on turf.)
