I use Bet Selector as the base and then apply some other little magic filters I have found on my journey.

My thoughts exactly. But more power to Vortech.

I use a similar approach but use only 9 variables and a couple of those may contain 2/3 variables with in them.

Days since last start is one variable but i use the last 2 starts for calculations.

Thanks Shaun. This is a approach I might need to lean towards.

So Vortech. Your ratings are a : Watch this space. 75 plus 2 more and counting.

Sorry, if that does not come across as I mean it, which is just how much effort this systems business can get.

What I am thinking at the moment should not be put in this thread incase somebody misunderstands exactly what I mean. I will wait a few days because I do not want to appear disrespectful to others here because we all use a different approach , have different temperments and a few long termers have a very long memory.

It will be the subject of yet another thread. I can hear a few moans in the background. Oh no!. Another thread by Star.

Np Star we all learn by asking questions and no ones opinion on the way things should be done is always the only way it can be done.

A certain poster on here said Ratings take everything into account. This poster uses R&S Ratings I believe.

IF your commercial Ratings take everything into account, then they've weighted ALL the Variables to achieve an optimum outcome. IF you apply your own filter / s to these ratings then the weightings of the Ratings variables will be tipped over so that they're out of whack / sync, and not how the developer had set them up. They will then be heavily weighted towards the filter you applied. And, the filter you applied may also impact directly on other filters, so it just ends up like a dogs breakfast and the logic of the original set-up is out the window ..... and you wonder why it doesn't work !!!!!

IF your commercial Ratings take everything into account, the ONLY filter you could apply is a price filter.

You could apply a race filter obviously ..... sigh

I think commercial ratings also very limited in relation to

- Track conditions
- Distances
- Gender of horse
- Location
- Field Sizes
