Wood Ratings Summary

[lsosa54]

Interesting look at Doug's summary for GP and SA today:

GPX:

Race 1 Rank 2 $11.40

Race 2 Rank 4 $28.40

Race 4 Rank 3 $28.40

Race 6 Rank 1 $17.80

Race 9 Rank 2 $10.60 Place


SAX:

Race 3 Rank 4 $103.40 (Hey, it wasn't last)

Race 5 Rank 2 $11.20

Race 7 Rank 5 $21.80


NOTE TO DOUG: Unless you're intentionally doing something different, the speed points seem to be screwy.

Tried making them a little more accurate than the normal formula...it is intentional.

I forgot it was called Wood Ratings, that was a joke for the one buddy of mine that claims software is a waste of time.

Someone give me a better name...

Using them together works well for me... the summary is based on a single, recent paceline, HandiFast is an average of the last 6 no matter the date.

Then of course, as John would say (that's my buddy) Just look at the Racing Form.

however at $7.00 a pop I just look at his.

LROSA-

What do you think about the WR, having calculated fair odds line, of course scratches will throw it off, so we would need to scratch but then, maybe , combining the 2 programs would be easier.

Then how are you doing it (I know your testing)

So if there are 8 horses anything over 8-1 is un acceptable as an overlay?

How do you wager once you find one, I usually (lately) go with what Tom suggested once... 1 Unit to WIN, 3 units to place.

I like the wood rating keep the name But is there a way to cut down on the

lines around the #'s i print them out in small print on 3 pages so the line

are tight.If not they sell magnifying glasses..

Hello Doug:

I just wanted to ask, do you think that the WR ratings are viable in giving the user a pretty solid feel for the Quarter Horse races for both Routes of say 4.5 furlongs and the dashes of 200 to 350 yards? Just curious. I don't have a good tool for playing the QH's right now and I am desperately looking for one...

Have a nice holiday Doug.

Didn't download Los Al, Doug, but the 3 double digit mutuels were at 4.5f, 220 yds, and 3f. WR doesn't handle 220 yds. and 3f, does it? Not even sure it handles 4.5f.

BTW, what changed in WR2?

[Vinnie]

Not to piggyback on to lsosa54's post, but, Doug, could you make WR to be able to handle the distances for the Quarter Horse races like Lsosa54 mentions? It would be awesome if it could handle distances such as 220, 300, 3f and 4.5 furlong races.. That would be too cool..
