57Viking,

Thanks for sharing these files, and all your answers to questions. These excel files are really nicely ordered by distances and factors, making it easy to make
comparsions between distances. Extremely well modeled. Thanks, too, to Ted for his original base model addition as well.

57Viking,

For the first time, I am playing the entire meet.
Yesterday was a tough day; however, the first 6 days were profitable.

Your information is incredible and is very much appreciated.
Don't forget to cash!!

Thanks everyone. I have been there for all days of the meet so far and hope to make them all again this year.

Update on the tracks:

The turf tracks are still favoring speed. We have not had any rain in the last week. The jockeys realize this and are pushing for the early lead. This has resulted in some speed duals that would not have been predicted by pace data.

I would say the dirt track has been neutral. They are putting lots of water on it before the first race and applying more water on it every race. The jockeys and horses that are not upfront are coming back very dirty.
