2024 HorseStreet Par Times are Available Now!

Today is the official release of the 2024 HorseStreet Pars.

Order Electronic Pars: Here

Order Printed Pars: Here

It is difficult to imagine that this is the 34th version of this book.

Interesting fact:
In 2011, 95% of our pars were sold as physical books.
In 2023 it was 6%.
Welcome to the electronic age.

Special Note: If you pre-ordered pars they will be emailed today.

The physical book orders are at the printer and should ship on Thursday.


And, Yes. I can see there is a glitch on our store page.

Not easy work....particularly if you are like me who was entering manually from Equibase.. P.S. I stopped as I would rather wait.. until I have the money...

My software is a big help.

Began upgrading it big from 2012-2017 but it is very mature now.

It allows me to do a lot of cool stuff.

Still, every distance on every surface must be done individually, then the pieces must be made to fit together.

It's that FITTING TOGETHER part that is the most difficult.

Really wish you would do first 1/4m pars for route races (at least for 1m through 1m1/8).
I'd buy this product in a heartbeat if you did.

It's a lot of work doing them myself

If you ordered the 2024 Pars, the Electronic version has been emailed to you.

Most came from Kelsey, my Customer Service VA.

If you don't see it, check SPAM.

Not possible.
The software has a history.

Our data goes back 20+ years!

There simply is no field to put it in without maybe $50k in programming.

Start with the last 4 years of data for every track in the country.


But seriously, folks.

If there was enough interest I could do a workshop where I show all my tools and how to use them.

Must have the concepts before building the tools.

The odd thing is that the strategy changes from track-to-track.

Think about all the EQUIBASE CAPTCHAS you'd have to account for to get all that data.

Seriously, this appears to be a perfect time to use the 'predicted pace' method discussed on that other thread on you final time pars.

There s a free year of EB data out there now.
That should give you enough data to make some useable 1C numbrers for the few tracks you need. Find out what median1c time lines uo with Dave's 19K par time, which are very good.

Found one more error: AQU 1 1/8 was missing.

Adding it enabled me to improve all the route pars at AQU so the entire track was changed.

All files have been updated.
Just open your order and click the link.

If anyone has lost their order link, just email Kelsey@HorseStreet.com and she'll take care of sending you your order link.
