I have no idea,...! But I think I will just plod along with my analysis of sectional times which I have been doing for the last couple of years now, it keeps my head above water. A thought occurred to me a fortnight ago. Any horses that I highlight (and then blackbook) from my sectional time and tv replay study, I then look back at their last prep/s and look at the similar runs in last time and even the time before, against this time. It's amazing just how similar the patterns are for some horses. Yesterday, saturday the two standout bets from my bb'ers on this basis were Causeyacan and Flying Ruby. They both won.

I'd love to know a lot more about Excel spreadsheets. EG, can you say put a horse from there, plus say a cell that might have a rating number on it, into a sort of database,..???, that is retrievable in alphabetical order,..??
