The addition of the "tapeta coarse at gulf"

Was a bit in shock!!!!

Will this throw the rdss numbers off due to the newness of
the surface or will it be seperate????

Maybe should have asked ted direct

thanks to all an have a great weekend

I thought things might radically change when Woodbine put in the Tapeta. NOTHING like that happened and horse injuries went WAY DOWN.

I worked there for about 10 years as the photofinish camera at both the standardbred and thoroughbred meets. The only thing that really changed was the sound: Tapeta made the hoof noise almost nonexistent.

Thank you for response
have a great night

When those races DO start to show up, TrackMaster will typically not supply any Inter-Track adjustments for RDSS to use until they have a meet's worth of data, so January 2022. Until then, it will continue to use the old surface for Inter-Track adjustments.

So -- just use the RDSS high-level numbers and Matchup-related info (Early/Late) like always. And as always, be guided by odds offered on your true contenders, and not just Win Odds: use also the late money tote info - the Tx2/PW% ratio.
