Energy distribution, again.... A big
THANK YOU to
@RanchWest for your idea about the Median Energy.
I'm implementing via some reports in the Pace Handicapping module.
F1% & EP% for races where the horses ran within 1 length of the winner (or won by any margin).
Same but with
Similar Surf & Distance within 1/2 furlong of today.
In addition, these 2 metrics (F1% & EP%) will show
for the race in each pace line.
(This one takes some doing but will make it relatively easy to test your theories.
Ranch, I believe that your approach
may have tremendous value when combined with the prediction of which call will be the most important in today's race. (Determined by the ES5 approach which considers the number of ES5+ horses and applies the two rules I've mentioned before.
