Pace and Cap - Sartin Methodology & The Match Up - View Single Post

I guess I should have been a little more specific(and perhaps this isn't the thread for this).

Does the Sartin methodology still use the DRF variant?

If I'm wanting to make my own Quirin-Style pace figs is there a way to put them into Excel with the DRF variants and produce them???Or is there a program already existing that does this???

In addition,as I said I have the basic algorithms programmed into Excel and that's what I use to produce the ratings now.But that is after I have hand adjusted the numbers with the DRF variant.Is there a program that does the ratings that you just type in raw numbers with the variants that spits out the ratings???

And if so,does that same program take into account the track to track adjustments,in addition to the DRF variant????

I think I can adjust my pars to the current reality when I get info info from my own style of track profiles.But especially at the beginning of meets it's very tenuous comparing the basic skills of horses coming from so many different tracks.

There is so much to interpret once you have the data anyway that it's almost as if there is no time to think once the work has been put in.That's the big issue I'm having right now.I don't know how to write complex Macros on Excel and I know nothing of older or current computer programs for the Sartin Methodology.Especially to the needs I'm trying to get to,and hopefully without breaking the pocket book!!

Thanks so much for your suggestions thus far.I still have yet to research some of them but I difinitely will in the near future.
