For each horse in a race:
X = Average position at 1st call going back for all previous races for the year (not life).
Y = Average position at 2nd call going back for all previous races for the year (not life).
Contender if X - Y > 0 and ranks within top 3 for the field.
Throw out every race where any horse has no record.
Add this to your method, should increase strike rate but may reduce avg $.
