Morning News

Good morning...

There is no Morning News today,

Or, there is but it's just a little one.

I need to get on with writing the code to generate the Horse Speed Ratings (which includes trying to determine how long, in terms of Furlongs, a neck or a head or a length is.)

Now you can see why I'm working to 8 decimal places!

I guess all I'll have to do is get my tape measure out and find a friendly racehorse!

A Quick Overview

Yesterday's Results, show a strike rate (for our top rated horse) of 29.03%.

Our Top Three rated horses had a strike rate of 78.57%

And that's pretty close to my target of 30% and 80% respectively,

Even before the Speed Ratings come into play!

Today

Today's 3am ratings show 27 races from 4 meetings.

I can't say any more as I've got to rush and get the Horse Speed Ratings computations started.

It'll either go extraordinarily well or horribly wrong; it'll be one or the other.

As always...

My kindest regards
