- - Previous Two Starts Finish (http://forums.ozmium.com.au/showthread.php?t=18473)

I have been refining a system (with thanks to Stix data) over the past few months.

What I have found is that the statistic second last start, 1 to 4 is a good filter but enhanced when combined with the last start being 1 or 2. These two filters are only two of seven that I am looking at. Others include SP, win/place percentage, weight, barrier.

Presently, I am refining win and place percentage. It is a labour of love at the moment!

Cheers,
Luckyboy

It has been around while, .... 0=10 ...but for a variant try a sliding scale depending on distance when it comes to spells, off the top of the head , min(max((dist-1000)/100,1),10) these days I find the spell isn't the bug bear it was when this was first thought up ........part of something.... just for fun.
