Jim, hope for a speedy recovery.

[reply="Jim, I have been using a very similiar methodology except I have been using SR instead of BH. Results have mirrored yours. Dave had recommended SR and Im comfortable now. Good luck moving forward and thanks for posting

It didn't take for Dave to touch base after I posted about losing during the Sar meet. One has to love that about Dave, he wants all of us to winners. Dave sacrificed his evening to spend two hours with me to review any issues I may be having with DET. No other vendor would offer that type of customer service!!! and my original post stated that I was critical of myself for not working hard enough. I did not say anything negative about DET. I love the direction we are headed and Dave's desire to improve all of our lives. Thanks, Dave, for reaching out to me!! You offer nothing but top notch service and support. Thank you

thanks gilly, good suggestions

will do Dave thanks

Good work once again from Dave and Brian. Look forward to expanded explanation!

Jim, I had to ask Dave the same question a few weeks ago

Dave I will be ending

Great job Dave R

I was able to pay my invoice successfully. All systems go as of now!

1. Do you take notes either by hand or in software?
I have made a few changes but I use DRF Formulator and the DRF Horse watch. I do not print either of these on the PP's. I use the Formulator notes to review the track tendancies (if any) on-line and make appropriate notes on my hard copy form. The reason I don't just print all notes is to limit the amount of printing as notes add a printed line whenever they are present.

2. Do you have knowledge of software with really good note-taking features?
I have found the note taking features in the DRF products meet my needs.

3. What features would you like to see in software for note taking?
To minimize printing and keep the PP's clean, I like the option of not having to print or display notes.

Good luck Ranch!!

Hi Ranch, what a good question!! I'd like to say 'all of the above'. lol I'm always looking for an opportunity to include a marginal horse in my wager. I'd say that generally I'm looking to play against bad favorites and identify horses where improvement is expected. Most improvement is anticipated through better pace scenarios.
Ranch, please feel free to ask any followup questions as I'm not sure I answered your inquiry well. The questions have certainly got my mind grinding!!

Congrats Conley, just saw the same tweet!

That is the rating Dave, thank you.

Dave/Dustin, I believe Dave uses a rating he calculates for each race which is based on running lines for entrants. I don't recall the specific name for the rating. In short, the rating represents a PAR for each race based on entrants instead of race conditions. For example, we've all seen $10,000 claiming races that appear much weaker or stronger than an 'average' race.
This rating may be an alternative to PAR yielding better results.

Ranch, I do not pass on wet tracks. But as someone who plays primarily horizontal wagers, I find more fields scratch down on these surfaces. I have to be careful with the prospect of short fields.
