Great work. Look forward to seeing how they do tomorrow. Thanks!

I just got some free time and I am going to run some tracks for Tomorrow Saturday the 21st. Thinking, Parx, Saratoga, Del Mar, Emerald, where else you guys want?

Sounds good to me

BGboothA · 07-20-12, 07:25 PM

Just keep in mind, I have not been able to figure out Poly, is kicking my ass, as is Turf.

Right now, Sprints on Dirt have the best win percentage.

I have made a small adjustment to the Turf races, so I am interested to see how those turn out tomorrow. May make some adjustments to the poly surfaces after tomorrows results.

I will also put up Sundays Cards later tomorrow afternoon when it becomes available.

BGboothA · 07-20-12, 07:40 PM

Just realized I posted DELAWARE's picks instead of DEL MAR's picks...fixing it now.

brucedenton · 07-20-12, 08:05 PM

Thank you BGBooth.

JakeLc · 07-20-12, 08:22 PM

I have a suggestion for synthetics. I see you have early energy listed on your sheets. The early energy profiles for synthetics are completely different from conventional dirt.As you accumulate more data you will see some eye-opening things in regards to winning early energy profiles on synthetics.

Noted....in which way...I can pull up all of my Hollywood and Arlington park and look at EP% in regards to synthetic surfaces. Should have about fifty races or so I can look at

TonyP · 07-20-12, 10:04 PM

Think its the pace of turf racing is why your turf picks do not do as good as conventional dirt along the same thing as Jakelc noted about poly. Also some poly plays different , I mostly capp poly the same way as turf and this seems to work well with a few exceptions.

BGboothA · 07-21-12, 09:01 AM

Kinda funny that the most downloaded track is Arlington Park, the worst track according to my history.

JakeLc · 07-21-12, 09:29 AM

Hollywood plays the most similar to conventional dirt.
The winning early energy "profile" for synthetic surfaces will fall into some very distinctive ranges.If you keep track of that as you accumulate data you will start to see the ranges form.

Sorry for the delay getting them up....my goal is to play quite a bit tomorrow. and then spend Monday and Tuesday inputting results into the result database and I will share my new totals.

I also, may have some tweaks in mind for Turf, but want to see some of the stats compiled first.

derby44 · 07-22-12, 08:19 AM

Hello--when I click on a link I get a white page with nothing on it--and at the top it says new tab. Can you suggest a way for me to rectify this issue? Thanks very much.

BGboothA · 07-22-12, 10:17 AM

It's a PDF file. Try rigt clicking (assuming you are windows based ) and choosing save as.

derby44 · 07-22-12, 10:30 AM

Thank you very much I can now open the file--much appreciated--best of luck.

I second your statement.

I think Parx sucks because the races are so fixed. I really believe that. I think alot of shady things have been gone on for many years there. That being the case, NO SYSTEM would work.

BGboothA · 07-22-12, 10:46 AM

The strange thing about part for me is that historically it has been one of my most consistent. We will see today.

Arletta · 07-27-12, 05:37 PM

Any charts for this weekend?

Yeah will run Sunday's for sure, not sure about tomorrows....Been a crazy week in the BGboothA household. New baby girl came this week.

Arletta · 07-27-12, 08:57 PM

awww... Congrats!!!

Enjoy the new baby Booth.... We can wait until things settle down.

BGboothA · 07-27-12, 09:32 PM

Yeah Sorry boys, no way am I going to get things up for tomorrow. We are still working on autmating things to make it easier and quicker. But no way I will get tomorrows up. I will get a full card for Sunday up though.

Plus some changes...
1. Per MrBrown's idea, the horses are now ordered by our rankings on the sheet instead of by post number. We are still working on the whole post number, program number problem.
2. Some added new features to attempt to get closer to good results on turf

DDT · 07-27-12, 11:15 PM

Thanks BG

BGboothA · 07-28-12, 07:46 PM

Sorry for not putting them up earlier in the week. Had the kid this week, and my partners don't want to pay the $6/day on days when we aren't going to play our own bankroll.

Some Changes:

Ordered Horses: This took longer than I thought it would, had to reorder a bunch of things in order to get this to work. But the horses are no longer in numerical order, they are ordered in the order that our system puts them in. This should help us in terms of scratches and finding the next horse in line. (thanks Mr.Brown for the idea)

Changes to Turf and Synthetic formula: I spent my time in the hospital this week, revisiting hundreds of races and results focusing on our Turf and Poly races. I made two major tweaks to the math involved in these conditions, and re-ran those races and had a positive gain as a result. No promises here, but it seems to be getting closer to something usable on those surfaces. We shall see.

Suggestions? Ideas?
What do you guys think? Any changes or ideas that you would like to see here? Questions? The goal in the coming weeks would be to have these ready Wednesday through Sunday. But again, this is still in the baby faze....I am still working on some of the bugs that lists horses twice in the top four picks and our program # problem, that I don't have a good idea on fixing quite yet.
