The Friday Oaks card and the Saturday Derby card are usually available on Wednesday after post position drawings for the Derby, which is today, Wednesday at 11am.

If all goes as with previous years, both Friday and Saturday's cards should be available later today.

Hi Guys, how do you use the rdss software on a sloppy/off track? Do you just use the best paceline, class, distance like you would normally do? Looks like the Oaks will be over a sloppy racetrack. Thanks

[sureshotlink]

Yes I do

It's not the horses fault it rained

Good skills,

Paul

Thanks Paul

I rarely look at the track condition of the paceline. However, I do want to know today's weather conditions, and in this case, for example if a horse ALWAYS quits on wet tracks when behind (i.e. doesn't like mud in the face) - and that horse looks to run behind others today, I use that info advantageously if I can.

On a wet track today, aside from the above, the surface (whether faster or slower due to today's extra moisture) exerts the SAME effect on all horses, so that cancels out its effect.

Often enough, the horses just run their race regardless of surface wetness, so it behooves us to know what that race might be, relative to the other horses.

IMO.

Friday's Oaks card for Churchill Downs is available for RDSS now. Still waiting on Saturday's Derby Card.

Hi I will use an off track if there is no other fast track to rate within the current form cycle, I just look at all the + or (+) lines for the horse and check the ratings of EPR LPR and TPR If the ratings are comparable to the off track and the DTV is not too high or low I will use it.
