Classie,
So, you like the computer generated notes for each race.
Do the CompGen notes actually become part of your notes?
If so, how is that done? Copy/paste or something else?
Do the CompGen show with your personal notes?
Do you do anything special when you disagree with CompGen?
Please help me to understand the flow as best as possible.

1. I import PPs and Charts into my database for all the major tracks and any race cards that had major stakes on them.
2. I run a series of Queries against that data once a week (on Mondays). These queries calculate and store many metrics I use for handicapping and studying.
These are the Computer Generated items from my own database that I import into the PPs:
a. Pressure Pts - expected early pressure in the race
b. Speeds - number of front runners in the race
c. Chart - describes whether the race favored the front, back, or was neutral
d. Class Rating - looks at the PPs of the horses that were in the field and generates a Class Rating for the field (only done for Graded Stakes)
5. Beyer Par (only done for Graded Stakes)
3. This data gets generated into the text file format required by Formulator and then is manually imported into Formulator by me.
Manual
1. RF- After I review all the data, including CJ's pace figures, I put a note into Formulator on what I think the race flow was
2. Bias - After I review all the computer generated data and watch the replays I put a bias note into Formulator
3. Horse level trip notes - After I review the replays, I add in any ground loss, trouble, or other relevant notes about the horse's trip.
The computer stuff is done for all the major tracks.
The manual stuff is only done for Graded Stakes, some other key stakes, and any other races I have time for.
Here are Arcangelo's PPs going into the Travers. You can see my notes.
