Jeff,
As i got back this past week to playing the horses,it seems i don't have the enthusiasm and the drive to play anymore.I am thinking of retiring completely from handicapping.
I understand.I also don't like to see some guys posting their selections and claim they win for the day without showing their tickets or proof.I don't doubt Tim(Lt1),but the others make me wonder.
Take care,Jeff.
Ray
Thanks.My wife is in stable condition and so far she's responding to treatments.I just stay on the positive and praying a lot.My relatives have been helping a lot too...Just went back to handicapping and playing to keep myself from going crazy.
Hope things are going good for you.How's the RDSS program working for you?
Partsnut mentioned to me that you may know or have The essential handicapper program that used the bris file? Any help locating this old program would be appreciated thank you. Greg 71 444 5323

Sorry for the how off topic something of (+) (0) subject is closed
Old Thread I like to read about a Early Horse.
This will Help for consistent pace line selection.
FTL Own words:
(+) = any race where the horse ran, 1st, 2nd or 3rd
(+) = any race where the horse shows one of the following
A – showed good early form by being 1st or 2nd at the first and/or 2nd calls, even if it faded down the stretch
B – any race where the horse made a good middle move (that’s call 1 to call 2) gaining in lengths and being within 2 lengths of the leader at the second call, even if it faded down the stretch
0 = any other line
The best definition I can offer for a “usable” line is;
“any line where the horse shows it had an impact on the outcome of the race”
The most important words here are “had an impact on the outcome of the race”.
Obviously a horse that finished 1st,2nd or 3rd had an impact on the outcome of the race and was trying to win the race
Any horse that is running 1st or 2nd at the first and/or second calls are obviously having an impact on the race, even if they fade down the stretch.
Horses that show they make a good middle move, as noted above, are impacting the race at the second call, even if they fade down the stretch. Generally, these types of lines will show the horse moving into 2nd or 3rd position or even taking the lead at the second call and then fading down the stretch.
Jeff,
Rdss to Syn 2 : There were too many ties in the #1 ranking of AP and the DR factor.Most of the time there were 3-4 horses tied in the top.The manual entry was still better.
