In RDSS' Config Screen, if the Get TS Ratings/Scratches box is checked, and if the track is indeed running and not cancelled, then on the day of racing when you assemble a race or click the Refresh TS Ratings button on the Entries screen, the pedigree and weight info (and Prime Power and Profit Line ratings) are downloaded and integrated with the other data from TrackMaster and displayed in RDSS.

If this doesn't happen for you, please email me and I will help you get it working, no worries.

That pedigree and weight data IS provided in the downloaded TrackMaster data file and could be (and will be, eventually) derived that way. For now though, since we were getting other proprietary ratings daily from TwinSpires, it was easy to also fetch and display that available weight/pedigree data.

I hope that clarifies things.

Ted
