Any chance you can expand on this? (the stats part) |
Thanks for the Kudos. I keep a database of a number of different factors gathered from several software packages I use. I look for trends at the track distance surface I am playing along with Long shot factors. Sometimes I get them and sometimes I am fighting yesterdays war.. Unfortunately since I am playing competitively I can't give any further details which would allow someone to reverse engineer. Read Brohammers book for a basis.. Having said that you absolutely need to be flexible and can't follow a black box approach. Often times my analysis puts me on a low priced horse in the middle of a tournament when I am in the need for price. At that point you need to look at other reasons why a horse can jump up. I know you are looking for details but unfortunately this is the best I can do. I will give the details when Belicheck hands over his game plan to Rex Ryan
