Are those prices for one track or all tracks?

Those are unlimited prices, Tom. If not, you would be into them for thousands just on charts and results alone.

Each is 'al la carte' whilst the monthly figure is 'all you can eat'
I think I must have covered them all judging from the responses.

Wow! Makes HDW vendors look cheap at $100 to $132 per month for PPs and Charts.

Just a side note about Post Time Daily. They give you a volume discount but I don't know the formula for that.

If you are a DRF Formulator subscriber you get the downloadable PP data for free.

I don't understand. If you are a "subscriber," how can it be called "free?"

I am assuming that you pay for the subscription. Is that not true?

Formulator is the advanced PP product from DRF. If you buy that advanced PP product in order to also get access to charts, replays, Moss figures, the trainer database, and customized PPs, you get the PP export feature for building databases as part of the product. It's the charts that cost extra.

There is a "new" chart forthcoming that I believe will be superior to Equibase, DRF, and Trakus charts.

Some interesting features will be position at turn(s) for all horses, full weather conditions at time of the race, horse racing style for all horses during the race, days between last race for all horses in the race, and no beaten lengths (everything in time metrics); and there is much more, all downloadable into Excel or any other spreadsheet.

This is not a sales pitch because the chart is not being develop for sale, it will be free if all goes well.

Absolutely! I switched from Brisnet (after using them for years) to JCapper a while back, unbeatable deal.

I'd like to see a web based chart much like the uk's racing post example below
the basic chart is free with the paid for added value stuff optional.
Most of the data points are clickable as well


Racing Post Chart (http://www.racingpost.com/horses/result_home.sd?race_id=632187&r_date=2015-08-21&popup=yes#results_top_tabs=re_&results_bottom_tabs=ANALYSIS)
