You should be in the state department Maxspa - you are kind and diplomatic. I admit to being a crusty old sailor with not much tact. Your analysis of various handicapping programs has provided me with much interesting and thought provoking reading.
What I am thinking about RDSS: This is, bar none, the best contender selection program/means I have used. With RDSS the way the information is presented, the various screens, etc., helps bring things together quickly and allows me to concentrate on bet structuring.
In the last few years I've been trying to intergrate speed/pace with database info and weighting the various factors mentally is tough going. Juggling all this data I'd waffle a lot of times right up to posttime then make hurried betting decisions.
I also have a bad habit of betting against strong favorites with horses I think have some hidden/or underbet factor(s) going for it. Nice to be able to look at the screen and say: This favorite is the real deal, either bet him/wheel him or move on.
I'm going to have a lot of questions later but for now I'm just absorbing the essence of the program.
