TrackMaster Flashnet can be thought of as a summary sheet of data taken from our TrackMaster Basic program. This is perfect for handicappers of all skill levels. Here is a description of the report and its many components:
Cover Page (pdf format only)
The handy cover page summarizes all the races for the day all on one sheet. Get the race number, post time, race conditions, exotic wagers plus all of the horses in each race with morning line odds, post positions, program numbers, jockeys and trainers along with the power, speed, pace and class figures. The top rated horse is highlighted in each race and the $ and "thumbs up" alert players to best bet and longshot plays respectively formerly known as the + and L in regular FlashNet.
Program Information
P# - The official program number as reported by the track.
Horse - Name of Horse
Post Pos - Post Position each horse will break from.
Power Rating - TrackMaster proprietary rating which provides a single number showing the horses' relative overall strength in speed, class and pace for this track, and ROI potential.
Wins/Starts-TodaySurf Sprint or Route - Indicates Wins and Starts record for past races run on today's surface, either all sprint or route races, depending on today's distance.
Weight - Weight of jockey in today's race.
Lasix - Usage of Lasix today.
1 First time on Lasix (none in previous race)
2 Second time on Lasix (also in previous race)
N On Lasix over 2 races in row
X Off Lasix today after being on Lasix in previous
Blank Off Lasix in both today's and previous races
Last Race Med-Eqp - Medication and equipment in last race.
L Lasix (medication)
B Bute (medication)
b Blinkers (equipment)
c Mud Caulks (equipment)
f Front Wraps (equipment)
n No Whip (equipment)
s Nasal Strip (equipment)
Morn Line - Morning line odds and historical value indicator (+,L,B).
Historical Value Indicator
A "+" symbol next to the morning line odds means that the combination of the Power Rating Margin (difference between the top two horses power ratings) & the post time odds (approximated by the morning line) were profitable in the recent past.
The "L" symbol notes a potentially valuable long shot play. These plays are based on computer analysis of various "angles" which have produced long term positive profits with horses at odds of 8 to 1 or greater. The "B" symbol signifies that both the "+" and "L" symbol apply in this situation.
Class Ratings and
Equibase Speed Figures - Definitions
Class Rating - A numeric indicator of the average winning speed of this race. Used to compare horses' across different types, distances, and surfaces of race.
Equibase Speed Figure - A numerical indicator of the horses' speed in a race compared to the expected speed of the race. This factor is adjusted so horses' speeds may be directly compared across different classes, distances and surfaces.
Average Equibase Speed Figures Distance and Surface
Avg - Average Speed Figure of last ten races.
Avg D/S - Average Speed Figure of last ten races at this distance and surface.
Avg CR - Average Class Rating of last ten races.
Avg CR D/S - Average Class Rating of last ten races at this distance and surface.
NOTE: When statistics are given for distance and surface (D/S), the races included are within one-half furlong of the actual distance being run.
Pace Early Mid Fin #R
Pace Style ratings analyzes the horse's positions at three stages in the race: Early Call, Middle Call, and Finish.
By averaging the positions a horse has been in at that stage over his past races, the pace calculator gives a number indicating where that horse usually is. If a horse shows a 1.5 Early, for example, it means this horse typically runs in front (between first and second) early in a race. Another horse might show a 6.8 Early, meaning it tends to run in sixth or seventh (more likely seventh as it is closer to 7 than 6) early in a race. By comparing the early to the middle and finish pace figures, you get an idea of which horses consistently run in front and which come from behind later in a race.
The #R indicator shows how many races went into the calculation. If an asterisk (*) appears before the #R number, this means that those races occurred on a different surface than todays race. For example, if today's race is on dirt, a "*" indicates that turf races were used in the calculation.
