i looked at the facebook page, but couldn't find a computed, program odds line. does this program have a proprietary odds line? thank you.

The odds line screenshot is now up on Facebook.
Thanks!

Just curious, is this bc you don’t like promoting new software or are you not a fan of this software?

I had a chance to get to use this program for a short period of time.
Once the daily track file gets loaded, you can navigate from the main
screens to any of the other drill down screens or simply arrow left or
right to see most of the program's factors. Very smooth and very responsive
for finding those factors you prefer handicapping with a simple quickness.
The design is very straight forward and well done. Ranchwest had done a
good job of thinking thru this design for various types of handicappers:
Sartin-types, pace figures, class ratings, and a nice set of form factors.
So, all fairly easy to roll your own here with his software.

From my perspective, being able to post here has been the biggest plus in launching this software. PA helped me in an amazing way and I appreciate the leg up.

i will wait to pass judgement on the software after i see the video of the programs workings. for me the bottom line is how accurate the betting line of the program is with it's top two picks, as i rarely if ever go beyond them in looking for my win bet.( i am strictly a win bettor). that was the selling point for me always, if a program can't generate a more accurate odds line than the public i can't beat the horses. i did okay with jcapper because when it came on the market it's odds generated was very good .
anyway good luck with your venture.

If you will name one track on one day, I will post the two Quick Grid odds line favorites (based on auto-selected pace lines) for every race before the first race and I will post the results at the end of the day. I would appreciate 24 hours notice.
I don't have time to do a lot of this, but this is a one-time offer. The odds line is not intended to be a selector, but I have confidence that it is solid in pointing to good horses.

It's because as a general rule, I never allow free advertising from anyone...authorized advertisers only (ie. paid).

Ranch, you posted on Facebook that you can't post future races because Bris might not like it. I don't buy it. Your prm has so many factors that prob point to the winner, but would they be used before the race? That's why posting past races not much help in my humble opinion.
Others might think different.

No, I don't currently have a calculation for Balance. There are many Sartin-style factors, but not the Balance calculation.
