I notice the BRIS DRF data files are up more than a day earlier than usual. Anyone know if this is going to be a regular thing?

They're pretty confused over there at times. When I was leaving for Florida last week on a Tuesday I wanted to download Thursday's card. I was leaving by 12:45 p.m. I called them at noon to ask if GP's card would be up soon. They said about 3:30 or so. 30 minutes later it was up.

This doesn't answer your question, but it shows you can't always trust customer service for answers.

Here's something odd that I just noticed. The BRIS DRF data files still have the 2002 generic trainer records in them. Everyone else including DRF now has the 2003 records in them. I only got one track so has anyone else noticed this?

The $64 question: How can a change be made in the DRF and not in the BRIS DRF data file?

I noticed that ITS seems to get their files up way before Bris. Why is that ?

Same reason that ITS also has them up way before BRIS. They don't have to deal with DRF's being a middleman. TSN gets its info straight from Equibase while BRIS gets its info from DRF who gets it from Equibase. Sound screwed up? You bet it is.
