question about using robot 2

[Gary Brous]

how would find all horses with "bad trainer" on a days racing card?

[Rick]

From the Robot2 User Guide 2009.pdf

"NO Bad Trainers - Tosses out trainers with a TRN rating of less than 150."

Check on the IMP, TLC or Prgm screens.

ok thanks

To get a list of all bad trainers on a card or full day, go into the Range Filters in Robot2

Set the TRN Rating: 050-150 (and checkmark the box for TRN Rating)

Then click "GET This Play"

I understand the definitions of fav A fav B and so on. But what I am confused about is how to interprete each of these catagories in using Robot 2. Example - if i run a "learn more" report with all tracks all distances all surfaces with "fit and ready" checked. then on the portion of the report with fav1 'A' with a win roi of 1.23 . Is this the races that have a fav1 'A' in them or is it "fit and ready" horses that are fav1 'A' ?

second part of the question how would you select all of the races on individual date that have fav1 'F' in them?

Learn More items "FAV1 A", "B" etc. are for the RACE.

So those are the results for any race with an "A" ML favorite in them. Not the horse itself.
Those items are on the RACEFILTERS screen.

If you want to test the individual ML Favs, use the RANK screen.

Maybe i can add "race" to those on the Learn All to avoid confusion.

To select only races with an "F" (Fav1) go into the RACEFILTERS and uncheck A-B-C-D from Fav1.

It's been less than a month, but I already need a considerable update to the Robot2 User Guide :eek:
Will fix it up asap.

Love the concept of ranking the favorites from A - F. Just incorporating into my betting is the big challenge.

It should make it easier Gary.

If your spot play or target play (tournament play) is to find a price and beat the chalk, then uncheck the "A" and "B" FAV1 from the RACEFILTERS, maybe even the "C" and leave only the most opportune race types to fish from.

If your spot play or target is for pure winners, such as looking for a pick4 single, then use only the "A" and "B" races and concentrate on high win% among K=1, Favs, etc.
