is there any handicapping software on the market that already has all the par times per track and allows the user to input variables such as weight, barrier No. etc? Ive heard of bet selector but have nt really looked into it.
cheers

On the face of it time rating should be the bee's knees in racing,
after all the fastest horse wins the race.
I have persevered for years with time rating. Have my own par time tables for every race track in OZ, worked out of actual race times ran on the track, for every distance under all conditions.
I must have been doing something wrong because I never could make time rating pay. I sure picked up a lot of good prized winners but not enough for a profit.
My combined class, weight and other ratings on the other hand, kept me in style for years now.
Betselector is basically time rating.
Tried it for a while early on but I was doing far better without it.
I don't know how it performs lately, maybe improved?
If you want my par times give me an email addy and I shoot them off to you.
