New Pace WorKshop Enhancements

Ted,

I have been viewing the New Pace Workshop video and there are two topics that I feel should be included in subsequent versions of RDSS.

One of the topics is the Quirin Speed points and I believe that it is scheduled for a future RDSS version as per a prior post but I am not sure. IMO the Quirin Speed points were shown to have a very positive impact value in the contender selection process. I backtested many programs and found it to be a valuable tool. It would be nice if they were included in the New Pace screen.

The other topic is: Breaking Ties using the Speed Ratings. I found this to be very reliable after using it in many of my previous races. It correlates very nicely with TE. I used it to break ties with: speed ratings, VDC, low odds contenders and even with speed point ties.

This could be a pop-up option and the user just enters the horses and the results are displayed. I feel just going back 4 deep is adequate.

Anyway this is my opinion on these topics.

Ernie
