HTRK is a version of the regular HTR2 program that added a second panel to the [KM] screen. This second section was a numbered summary of negative and problem areas for each horse. I was barely able to finish it right before i left home.
While in Vegas at the Horseplayer World Series, i worked with it and learned a great deal, and got a lot of feedback from other users too (thank you David LV in particular).
There are quirks and errors in some of the items that need to be corrected. For example, FTS (first timers) were getting the flag for "bad Fr3" even though they had never run a race!
Some of the items were too common and useless and will be removed. Others need stricter parameters to make them truly "negative" and difficult for the horse to overcome. This is especially important when these items are attached to favorites.
The overall concept is terrific though and is really a timesaver and helped us immensely during a busy and pressured tournament. I'll work on it some more and release another version with tne newsletter in mid-March. Your suggestions are welcome anytime.
