Brisnet PPS users: Question about track bias stats

For those who use Brisnet PPS, how many races for the week totals do you like to see before you use that data as opposed to that for the meet totals?

Do not use this personally. The reason is that a true bias for a track is usually short lived. One day, maybe two, in most cases. Pays to do your homework here and review results each day.

Which means not enough races have been run to make a statistically significant sample.

If the week and the year are close, I just assume BAU.
If the week is noticeably different, I will take notice. I will get the latest charts and look to see if I can assume a change has happened. Not saying I will go by it, but it will give me a red flag to pay attention.
