Thanks for the reply. I am always curios about how others use the program. We both use the line chosen by the preceptor tool a high percentage of the time. I now have a related question. When a horse has had 3 terrible races that were all run under similar conditions the preceptor will still pick the best of the three, do you drop that horse from win contention at that time?

What do you do to qualify a horse as a contender? Myself, I look at the BL/BL screen and get rid of any horses that rank worse then 5 on both the Primary and Secondary line scores. Now and then I might keep a horse that ranks 6 if it shows color, but that is seldom. This works well for me and I get a good percentage of winners that generally rank in my top three.
