I've settled on the best way I can come up with to self tune. for a new weighting criteria I first segment the races by surface , condition, distance, purse and race type. for sprints I use <=1540. for routes I use >=1760. I'll keep 7 1/2f races in their own category. next I check q-check. click q-check several times. now I check f-tune and click until the new win percentages don't change. I'll note the win percentages. now I'll set all the factors to -1. I 'll click f-tune several times until the win percentages don't change. I'll note the win percentage. now I'll change all the -1's to 0's and run f-tune again and note the win percentages. the method with the highest win percentages of the 3 will be the one I name and save to use to handicap this specific type of race. for existing criterias I just load , tune. and save. Anyway, this seems to be the best way to create the most precise weighting criterias.

Are you not afraid of backfitting the data or are you testing against 2 different sets of data?

yes and I self tune the 3 ways I described and save the one with the best win percentages. the results have been quite excellent with a minmum of at least 40 race cards and results. I'm also using purse ranges to acquire my minimim of 10 races of my target race type.

I'm only testing against 1 dataset. I want at least 10 races to create my models. more is better. overfitting can occur using too few races to create a model.

Here's another tip for users that I'm seeing positive results with. always look at the pace report in conjunction with your handicap picks report. the pace report displays horse paceline fractions in feet per second at exact distances. If your top contenders on your picks report are beaten in the pace report by another horse at the exact distance then that horse is a must use in any betting plan. they are usually not the favorites

the program made these supers look easy today at Delaware. the top 4 boxed actually hit in the 7th and I used filters in the 8th to hit this biggie on my second ticket.

Chris, I'm not much on making videos but you have to access that module which is listed torwards the bottom of advanced features.
There are 3 steps you have to follow and you can get them in the help files.
If you send me an email I'd be happy to send the help file to you.
