A modest achievement - Pace and Cap

mick · 07-16-2016, 08:58 PM

I've been an RDSS user for 5 weeks and have kept Wager Decision Forms fastidiously since I found out about them from a Barb Craven/RichieP thread.

Today, I completed another 20-race cycle and hit 50% for a second time. While it's a modest achievement, I'm enjoying a celebratory glass of wine as I type this.

I've spent years grinding out a small profit with a pencil and paper PPs. It took a lot of time and effort. Now I have this great computer program that does so much of the heavy lifting for me. I only wish I had found it sooner.

So, to Ted for RDSS and to all of you who have shared your knowledge and insights on this forum, I raise my glass.

With gratitude,
Michael

you will only get better as you learn what specific readouts are more important at one track over the other

Thank you, Mike. Many more steps to climb but at least I feel as if I'm on the staircase.

BTW thank you for the Brohamer Model Spreadsheet you posted.

As long as you don't run up those stairs you'll do great. This is a large staircase to climb. Your attention to detail, work effort to keep records and enthusiasm will serve you well. I wish great success.
