Confirming race runner

Yup i'll be supporting with up to 20-25 comms a week if possible (which should always be the case as I can do 8 an hour over sunday-tues)

Ill do comms no problem.

Comms are all covered now Gray. You can leave that bit to me. Texted with Ryan T, Ryan C and Doug last night so we are all onboard. Sadly no Stu but we can cover it with the 4 of us.

Sorry Guys but i couldnt keep Dropbox going with no income.

I'll only do the first two weeks of handicapping - hopefully the mechanics of the game can do the rest.

It works well enough when there are initial ratings. So only the non handicaps of the first 2 weeks need to be rated

Too easy Campese.

Need to do weeks 6 and 7 also for the uploads

There should be enough horses with ratings in week 7 for this not to be an issue. Its only when they all have no ratings

Plots and entry for an Uber horse into a maiden with only donkeys in it

I am just going off to order books on targeting the big handicaps by Barney Curley and Sir Mark Prescott from Amazon. Doubt I will find a copy of Fooling the Handicapper by Phil Bull though

If it's only Listed and Group races then it's not a problem. I found those races to be the easiest and fastest to look after.
If this works out and the racekit can do the handicapping then that is a big win for the league.
This will free up Gray's work load and give him more time for his wife and budgies.
Those poor budgies get the cold should every league season.

I agree, but from a little experimentation it is slow to catch on, I ran a stack of races on the kit when this was first discussed using my top NH sorts, it took about 30 races before they crept up to the 170 mark where most of them should be, thus if we have week 6 maidens with only new horses and low rated sorts still looking for a win you can probably get something that should be a 150 rated NH horse or 110 flat out at only a few points above the highest rated entry, 5 uploaded monsters could then look to steal around 10 races, the maiden and the low handicap the following week and maybe beyond. Personally I think the new horses will need a manual view.

I don’t really care much but I can, based on experience of handicapping moans, guess others will.
