Is there a programm...?

I have close to 86 angles i use when capping a race,example speed going long on turf cutting back to 7f.2nd time drop off a layoff,etc
My question is there any software program where i could input this information and let the software to the rest of the work?
Im talking to a software developer who will charge me close to 4000 grand to develope such a software,before i jump in is there any software out in the market?Thanks

You can try out the latest version of the free OpenHorse TrackLab demo and download 30 days of free html data files for all active tracks in North America.

For fractional times with more accurate results (and Equibase speed fig), you have the option to purchase the results data files from your choice of (3) providers: EQB XML $1.50, DRF chart (Monthly $80), or BRIS 50c.

Under Trackmaster ultra angles its the closest i have seen to my liking.Instead i would like to input my own angles instead of theres.

For example on July 23rd at Sar Pretty Boy Freud won and paid $102.
IMO the most profitable angle in racing is the route race run on turf and the cutback to either 7f or sprint.

Unknown Wonder on July 25 repeated this angle and paid $67.00

I wont go into detail in one meet this specific angle popped 16 times and the average mutuel was $23.

Reading the charts from Sar in the year 2006 it happened five times odds were

11/1 7/1 32/1 6/1 15/1.

I use almost same angle and have some others. As of right now, I have input formulas into Equisim. It doesn't automatically spit out a report, but I can tweak any angle with a few keystrokes.

I plan on trying out Jcapper tho.

Hi Casino

It's possible to do what you are talking about with Microsoft Excel, although the process is labour intensive. I'm sure there are other spreadsheet options out there which would be just as good if not better. If you're willing to put in the time, and enjoy the process, there is no need to spend 4 grand.

The task is to calibrate the beast.
There are software products all over the place, but ...
Although those programs are not bad at all, I don't fancy those who made them worked hard enough.
Back in the very early days, my friends and associates used to tell me "make this angle coefficient about so and it 'll kinda worK". That's not however rigorous enough.
