abs()
yes, it is possible to have a negative , I have seen it, but I roll it to 0. I dont think it's hurting me. usually I think it means the horse did not finish the race, Jockey fell off .
abs() if you have a -9 you make it a 9.
I guess a negative number means he was that bad? Still do not understand why they go below 0. In your case abs() on a -78 gives you a 78?
Also I believe their Jockey/Trainer combo at the meet and elsewhere are inaccurate, I've compared it to equibase and noticed it does not match up.
They probably have different rules. Equibase will start new stats. Example Mountaineer takes 2 months off and they zero the stats out. WTF
But I have not looked at that in a few years, so who knows maybe it's me.
