Can you help him with that? Isn't there a way you CAN bring it out big bro?

Richie

BRIS has a DRF style speed rating and variant in their data file; they just don't display it in their PDF past performances. If you run the BRIS $1 data file through the BRIS past performance generator you can display it on screen or print it out.

Dick,

I have the TSN pp Generator and pp files down loaded from Brisbet.
Are these what you are refering to?

If so exactly what do I do with them?

I don't believe the TSN Past performance generator will open Bris data files and the TSN data files don't have the drf SR+TV in them. If you are getting the free PDF files from Brisbet, they are not going to do the job.

Brisnet has a software data file called the "DRF data file (single)" that sells for $1.00 a card. If you bet a certain amount a month thru Brisbet you do get a discount on the files. They also have a "Bris Custom Past Performance Generator" program which is free and operates just like the TSN version.

When you get your Bris Past Perfromance Generator installed, load up up your *.DRF data file, goto (Styles) (Create a new Style), name your style and then goto (Styles) (Edit a Style) and you'll have a box displayed that lets you edit (Items) (Options) or (Filters). Under items, you'll see a whole list of things with checkboxes of to the side for "displayed on Screen" or "Printed".

The items that are normally displayed have checks in the boxes. Scroll thru the list and you'll run on to DRF SR+TV. Check the box and it should appear somewhere when you go back to the past performance screen. The numbers off to the far right control where it is displayed or printed.

If you play with it a lot, you will eventually come up with a past performance that shows exactly what you want. Their help system has extensive screenshots and will run you through it. With a lot of study and a lot of experimentation you will eventually come up with your own Custom Past Performance for viewing or printing.

Good luck.

I think this is the best way to go at $1.00 a card. You can drive the PP Generator, Aodds98, and MPH with this data file. You will get the DRF speed rating and track variant for use with SynergismIV and this file can probably be used with other programs as well.

Thanks guys,

The pp generator from tsn will take the Brisnet/DRF data files but won't display the the drf s+v.
I down loaded the pp generator from brisnet and that works real fine.

You can view the DRF-TV in TSN PP Generator, you just have to create a style to display it.

Click Styles>Create a New Style. Then name it DRF+TV.

When the edit box opens, scroll down to number 500 as shown here:

Then put checkmarks in the boxes for DRF SR and DRF TV. Also renumber their order to 355 and 356 as shown here:

Then your pp's will show the numbers in the same spot as the Daily Racing form does.

The advantage is that the TSN PP Generator will open both TSN and BRIS files, whereas the BRIS version opens BRIS files only.

I thought AOdds required the special "Hat" file.
