Thus, the development of Speed, Pace and Class, to Trip and a running line. My question is if you were not a coder and the old style of reading a past performance and the spidey senses give you that yes...from my past feelings that this horse has a chance. So this part is a joke, I have decided to hook up my brain ala EA games to my computer and simulate those thoughts into the past performances. I have spoken to people about inputting a score for each angle but forget it, there are way too many to put into a spreadsheet that may or may not give you a good estimate based on these principles that have been engraved into the game and then others continue to find there are more.
I took Ray Talbots old style scoring list as well as added some of my own factors or angles I have learned like Advanced Form Pattern Recognitions. etc.
The question or the combined question I have is "Does anyone have a scoring style that is accurate or should a past performance page via running lines be thrown out the window... Just curious, my created Time Card that I created, takes far too long when it comes to clicking through..like "a Stretchout, a Surface Switch, a Cutback, Trainer Switch, 1st Off the Claim.. you get my drift.. Just Curious because I am just about to throw this all out the window... and just go back to reading a past performance with a pen and my notepad..
P.S. particularly due to yesterday and tournament play.... In a 12 race tourney Pick and Pray.. I have 5 horses run... 3rd.... Is the game frustrating absolutely.. I am not gambling right now because I have no job but have enough to play 1 dollar tournaments and I usually hit at least top 5 once a month and there are great players out there but this is worse slop I have ever been...

I use as many angles as I can knowing that they are valid after visually testing for at least a year.I do not run the races through a database screening process because there are too nuances that may excuse the horse in the race. After determining which angles are valid I score for odds lines creation only. For the most part, I just look for which angles have fired and considering pace scenario, form, workouts and connections, decide which horses should be considered for betting. Ray Taulbot angle #26 is almost an automatic. I have over 1000 angles and for the most part 0 to 5 may fire for any horse. Most of my angles are composite angles made up of 2 or more factors. No, you cannot do this by pen and paper.
