Bill,
much of what you mention is in line with the way I view and use the methodology. I respect the fact that alot of things still work today that are 20 plus years old, and on the other side of the coin, I also understand many things are dated so use with caution. To be open is also to be willing to change, and to be going in a forward direction. The problem I have with dated programs and thought is the data is not what it once was. I have done side by side and viewed that trackmaster was more correct on this race, and the next race bris has the upper hand. Everyone can find something that works consistantly for some races and hone in on it as I think we all do in our own ways. But I really do not thing anything will ever replace the ability to read the form like a pro, and to pick winners without a computer occassionally if you had to.

Buy three Forms a year: B.C., Horse of the year, Kentucky Derby. Rest of the time the data does it.

Things seem to work well at the Meadowlands:
If you look at the charts that "Tompkins" posted,
which seems to be a great angle when applied with
the correct contenders and software.
It's not very difficult to understand.
