Trying to hone

Hi guys

Thanks for the deeper looking at the %BVD numbers

In testing, When I've had this situation, I have been doubling the shown % number and taking 10 points away from the total, as a penalty

So for race 8 today at Parx the winner Iggy Logo has two works in 21 days following a 40-day layoff
I have been rating horses like this as 78 + 78 -10 = 146 BVD
Now that I see that on days with less than 5 workouts there is no % number
So If a horse works on a day were not too many other horses work There should be no penalty right?

Thanks

Iggy won, He does pretty well after 30-40 day layoffs
