Thanks for clarifying. Without clarification, new people reading the board and fairly new to the game may think all commercial software would be a waste of time and money. As we know, your last paragraph quoted above is squarely on point.

Binder and Ritchie - Thanks for the kind words.

The 5th race at FGX is about 10 minutes away.
I have posted it for illustration purposes to show you what I like about HTR2.
Ritchies early Angle horse looks like my first choice.
See how easy it is to interpret the HTR2 read-outs.
7 to win - 10 for second choice.

Strangely enough, I don't feel bad because I'm still in a learning process.

The winner came from the 1st 4 "K" numbers, which wins 80% of the time, and if you look at the chart I posted originally, you will see that the winner was the second early under E/P and had a better velocity numbers for the last 2 fractions. I missed this.
However the race profile did call for an early type and I hastily picked the wrong one. My pick finished 2nd in the exacta which paid $ 196.40.

You learn by your mistakes Hopefully, I won't make too many more.

Parts,Great Job its good to see people post about software other then RDSS which only a few people have.Thanks to Richie's posts I hit the 8th at Aqu because the race setup as other then early and the horse closest to the pace won at 22-1.I would have had the 7th as well at 12-1 with a lone early who got the lead and was going to win but yards from the finish line broke down.Oh well that's racing ,I did feel bad for the horse and jockey.Jeff

The truth of the matter is that you will always do your best with the program that you are most confortable with with. And NO program is any better than the person who is using it. I was with Parts all day Saturday on voice on AOLs IM and I noticed that he was not doing the "black box" method. He was reasoning out all of his picks with special emphisis on certain readouts that caught his eye. There will never be a "black box" method that doesnt require some human thought. Equity traders for years have tryed to come up with these "black box methods" The idea behind this was that all human emotion was excluded creating what they thought would be a consistant method. They worked great when the market was trending strong eithor way but when consoidation ( sideways non trending markets) was there they failed terribly

I appreciated your encouragement and kind words.
You guys are truly friends that I'm happy to say are a part
of this board and make it work.

I've picked out five spot plays at todays PHA.
I used HTR2 - No Black Box here.
Simple interpretation of the data which is very straight forward
and applying some of Ritchies concepts where they apply.
I am looking for 40% winners, 2 out of 5, single picks.
