2) What happens if a horse was choked and rated in the last race/last 2 races? Again, wouldn't that cause you to misinterpret a pace scenario?

How is that captured in the info?
Your hypothetical "what if" scenarios--every software developer has heard from day one. The truth is, it just doesn't happen often enough that way. You maybe score a couple longshots every meet with careful study--but it's not a regular daily occurrence. You can also score some longshots with Pace View you would never, ever see without the program.

This is quick, inexpensive software for handicappers that would like a different VIEW of the races and spot plays/angles. I don't care to know a horse's life history...just what he's done lately.

I understand you and other 'cappers have different styles & need to know more-- by all means go for it

Fair enough. Was just wondering. I can appreciate that.

Sorry. One more question. A good % of tracks will have an anti rail / outside closers bias on given days. Is that incorporated into the selections/software? If a speed horse is bogged down on a dead rail, their pace fig can be dramatically impacted.

As a pick 4/5/6/7 player, I can't afford to miss one nugget of info as that nugget might cost me $50,000

I'm always looking to improve my game. A year ago i didnt use TFUS. Now I use formulator and TFUS. That's why I ask.

I am thinking that you likely already know the answer to this question. Folks who are put on blast are usually put there for a reason...usually their own behavior. Just sayin'... Good luck at The Downs tonight.

Not necessarily. TFUS has red and blue for bias notations. Was wondering if NCG did the same.

Thanks for the well wishes

You have to admit, you are a bit arseholish, right?

I love you though man. You are always interesting, you bring definite light to subjects, and you post with intent and passion. I love it. While I may not agree with 80% of your posts, I certainly enjoy them and you make me think.

When you post and you make people think.., that is what this should be about, right?

Yes. So noted.

You bring up good points about a pace line selection variable, ie. 2nd race back, 3rd race back, 4th race back. etc. That would most likely require multiple screens, additional programming and adding to cost.

Racey- Board opinion, Pace-View is as good as any $35 program on the market that I have ever heard of. It also outperforms some other programs that I have that are in the $500-1000 range. Very easy to use with a short learning curve. Will it make you a winner everyday? NO, but it is a pretty good tool to have in your box.

It's well worth the $35, in my opinion.
