The template I'm working on provides data for each horse on one line. For instance, each of the 10 pacelines in the pp for a horse is broken up in chunks. Race date may be in columns a thru j on row 1. Then another detail in k thru t. And so on. I want the data displayed as 10 rows for horse 1, then the next 10 rows for horse 2 and so on. Once I pull in the raw data for a new card I will use the generator to quickly customize the whole card to my specifications.

That will narrow down the pacelines. I will choose a paceline for each horse, locate it in the template and delete the other 9 lines for each horse. Now I have one line per each horse in the race, fully crunched, ending with all my pace figures and columns ready for my decision rankings. Separately I'll list the jockeys and look them up, to determine who is switching to a better or lesser jockey.

I use the DRF Quick sheet not for the ML but for distance specialists, horses for courses, jockey/trainer alerts, recent races, hot jockeys and trainers, etc. I look at the odds last. They will decide IF I bet and how but that is last.

That's my current plan of action. I am, of course, making note of class changes, surface and distance changes, tandems, etc. Lots to look for and think about.

Suggestions are welcome.
