Other Factors post Tom Brohamer's Modern Pace Handicapping book
 

Hello,

I have started looking at the pace numbers for the past few Hong Kong seasons again (I had stopped in February).

To that end, I am looking at these 8 calculations:

First fraction FPS
Second fraction FPS
Third Fraction FPS
AP
EP
SP
Factor X
% E

These are primarily based out of Tom Brohamer's Modern Pace Handicapping book.

I am taking the lazy approach here and asking this question, rather than going through the forums -- for that I apologize.

Could you help me add to the list of 8 above and identify other compounded factors (and their calculation formulae) that have since been proposed?

Regards

I would include the 7 Primary factors within RDSS.

Thanks Mitch44 for your prompt response.

I do not use RDSS (as it is not available for Hong Kong).

Can you or someone point me to the literature / documentation about these other factors (Factor W, VDC% etc).

FW is the average of EP and SP.
Hidden Energy is average of 2nd and 3rd fractions - I find it good in many turf routes.

Its I the RDSS glossary babuboy.
