Hi Dirk,

Personally, I don't really use JT at all. However, nearly all of my systems need both the jockey and trainer scores to be highest or 90% of the highest. This usually results iin the selections being in the top 3 or 4 in the market. So I need a SR of 40-50% to make it profitable.

I normalised each score to 100 before I store it in the database to make it easier to build systems around. Unfortunately, this means I can't use the DLR value to find out the days since last run as it is a direct correlation. EG a score of 30 (with weighting of 5) means it's last run was 9-10 days ago.

Your right about the Time value. I think it is only useful at a certain distance range.

Cheers
