Polytrack test

[njcurveball]

I am working on my database, but my day job just takes up too much time. :D

If someone is playing Polytrack, this would be my suggestion for a test. Take your menu du jour K contenders, I would suggest top 5. From them, rank by %early, lowest being #1. Then record win% and ROI by rank.

If you choose 5 contenders, than 20% would be a "random" win% to make sure you weren't too far below if you show a big profit.

If someone wants to post the results here, I would love to see it.

I play mostly night tracks, Meadowlands, Mountaineer, Hoosier, Retama, Charles Town. So I will try to get to this, it may take a while.

I am interested with all the discussion about how the track is "set up" for closers.

thanks,
Jim

Be sure to read the Beyer Article in yesterday's (Oct-19th) Washington Post. KM provided a Link in the General Discussion Area. Loved Ken's comment. As always - KM is "THE MAN"!
