Daily Racing Form Files

[Myhorse1_X]

Does anyone write any software that converts the Daily Racing Form files to a comma-delimited file so it can be used in Handicapping Software?

I understand it has been done and used for the Past Performance
imput for software.

Someone said here that the DRF files were comma-delimited. So, I tried to download the sample. The link was broken, so I emailed them. They told me of another way to get to the sample. I was able to download the file, but I couldn't unzip it. It appears to be password protected. I concluded that they were currently incapable of delivering a product and gave up. This happened over the past few days.

If you download Formulator files, you can export them into comma deliminated files. You cannot do this with the PDF files.
It is very easy with Formulator files-there is an export funtion and you get several text files as exports. Beyer figs are included and I think this the only source for them in electronic format.
