I would doubt that it is as comprehensive as RDSS (which I understand you are trying).

The problem with your post is that cloud9 had a specific question, not a general one like "What software do you use?".

Thank you. RDSS should not be part of this thread. Let's move on.

ProHandicapWizzard v3.0

I have used version 2.4. Recently purchased v3.0. It has numerous upgrades
including a 7 page manual for installation and use of the program.
Just starting to learn the program. I am satisfied with some of the initial results. Greg the developer is extremely helpful. I had some minor install issues which he helped me resolve very quickly.
Will be reopening my Bris account next month so I can more thoroughly learn the program.

You need to have MS Excel Ver. 13

I wrote to this provider and never received a response.
From what I am led to believe, software focuses on better class races.
Might not be suitable for the cheaper races.

You have not written the provider, so it is false to claim that you never received a response. All inquires are responded to.

The software does not focus on better class races. It can handle all races. The reason it is recommended not to use it on the "cheap races" is because the horses in those races generally have very high variances in their speed figures, which leads to less predictable results. In other words, there is more randomness in the low stakes races, which is something you don't want.
