Golden tempo wanted more distance and fit perfectly into the race. Ped on the horse was strong. Amazing ride by Jose Ortiz.

As always, Dave reached out immediately and we isolated the issue. Don't know if the guy ever sleeps, but his attention to his users is unmatched. Much appreciated!

abRx and abRy were all over the 19. He was my saver in the race. In a chaos 5 race those 2 ratings and *r4 help point to exotic plays.

#19-- 23-1.

At least not at the South Point in Las Vegas.

275 seats all taken and at least a dozen doing standing room only.
And the overflow with just seats, no desk and monitor, had another 50-75 there,

South Point is good for horse racing!!

in the horsestreet way of doing things SR's are a major factor. in paper/pencil handicapping what is the consensus feeling on the next important step? I've bantered around with many factors by the $net/ IV things but can't seem to get the confidence needed for the next step. The 24 "systems" are really quite good. But, I'm in a "please, Lord"- let me break even today because I really need the money phase. Love this game-love the horsestreet way. I am aware that high purses in the lower level races have changed the way horses are entered, The EPS factor has changed with it.

I had a quick call with Dave yesterday. We talked for a minute about profit contenders and I brought up "H" horses that I saw were winning with high Penelope Speed (Spd) rankings. Less than a 1/2 hour after the call-- boom.

TAM R7, #9 Acquisitive-- H5. $85.40 winner. Acquisitive doesn't look that great on paper (or using my Object), but has several positives. PEN Rank 2, EP Race Running Style, E/EP Rank 1's and Spd Rank 1. Early Pace, Dirt to Turf and cut back in distance. Speed rating 4 races back is Rank 1. Stretch Call Best Ever (SCB1E) is Rank 1. But, we don't have to do all of this handicapping, DET does that for us and puts us on a solid contender.

SAX R1, #2 Sneaking Candy-- H4. $14.80 winner. Another sneaky contender. Doesn't look great on paper, but again, Spd Rank 2. PEN and BH Ranks 3. Solid Speed rating 2 races back and another SCB1E Rank 1.

First, look for "H's" with high Spd Rankings. Then check the other BH and Pace columns for positive signs.

I agree completely, thank you for taking the time to answer, I appreciate it very much!

Right, I forgot that. Anyway, it does allow moving forward.

CAW's have ruined the game I can only place maybe 6 to 8 bets a day on a weekend card. Odds are dropping after the gate opens. No software can predict odds dropping like that. What quality software can do is help narrow down selections. With that being said, I made a post weeks back about getting out of the US market and placing more bets overseas. I approximately have 25 to 35% of my bankroll involved in overseas racing. I will be moving more. I don't see the US market getting any better with the CAWS involved at the level, they are. A reduction in field size hasn't helped the game. I am making money overseas and losing money in the US market. That should explain where i will be heading at some point. I can understand your frustration, but this has zero to do with DET software. DET software will only help not hurt.

I have seen something similar (maybe identical) and I solved it by opening the race following the one you are having the problem with, then closing it and then re-opening the problem race.

Wow! That's a lot of frustration. This 'game' that we all play can certainly do that. Some of what you say is true but not completely. Also, some is not true but again not completely.
Observing the tote board is impossible, even to the well connected. You will never know the true odds of the horse(s) you wager on until after the start so there really is no reason to check the tote.
I say, go ahead and bet your overlay. If you can psychologically accept the outcome that 75% of the time you will lose that wager then good on you. I know that I can't and Dave has said that he can't either.
Cashing tickets more often has a less negative effect on the bankroll and thus a more positive effect on your psyche and a boost to what Dick Schmidt called the 'velocity of money'. Keeping those fluctuations to a minimum is something that I've learned that I need.
I'm not sure what you refer to when you say 'perception'. I'm seeing something incrementally better than anything I've seen before and I've seen a lot.
