Handi....

Just wanna give a heads up on this I noticed...

Starting around the middle of Dec , there quite a number "60" showing up for the factor CC

In Jan...the whole column for every track is now "60"

I wouldn't get too giddy about that--the exchange rate for a thousand dollares' is like 37cents.

Hi Mike,

I have many different version of Handifast, and do not see that problem in any of them. I use the Bris single data file. What version of Handifast, and which data file are you using?

Strange...I've been using JCP files since July

What does "CC" stand for?

I think it's class consistency from Dick Mitchell.

If you guys can run some jan cards , it can prove what I believe it might be..


I think its because of the new year and the money box has zero's in it..

Hi Mike,

I just ran version 2.3 with a multicaps file, Gulfstream 1/3 and do not see the behavior you describe. The cc numbers look fine. Something must be different in the jcp (hdw) files that are affecting the calculation.

I just ran JCapper/HDW files into my program, FG 01/03/2016, and the money box is populated, except for 2016 of course because none of the entries have run any races in 2016 yet. So, all the money data is there, and in the proper fields.

It is. The CC, PS, and Power ratings are based on the Mitchell stuff from one of his books (Winning Thoroughbred Strategies, iirc). They are slightly modified from the original formulas to allow them to work with Handifast. I added those to Handifast which is why my version of the program is called HHX (headhawg eXperimental). They were just additional ratings and I wasn't sure if I was going to leave them in, hence the eXperimental in the name.
