More info for race selection

[asfufh]

I\'m wondering if TG has any plans to assist TG users in selecting races to handicap?

For instance, I think we all have our favorite TG pattern plays but finding races with a horse\'s pattern similar to one\'s favorite(s) is a hit and miss thing..... unless one can afford to buy the TG figs for several tracks each day and then
spend the time to go over 50 or 60 races.
 
I\'m guessing that others have ideas as to what info and TG angles (not necessarily naming specific horses) they would like to see before buying a given race (field size, # of horses with combined top/pair% over X%, # of horses with 02x patterns, # of horses coming off layoffs,2nd,3rd off layoffs, etc.)

It would be nice if TG could come up with something that would make it easier for us TG turf analysts(pros and weekend warriors) to find races that we would prefer to handicap.

Great post. I go through this thought process a lot. It would be nice to find a way to sort of preview a card before deciding to purchase. Tough to see how that\'s feasible from a business standpoint. The price point, while a little on the expensive side is well worth it because of the accuracy of the data and especially because it keeps a lot of \"players\" from purchasing giving us TG users a distinct advantage. Additionally, I only have to hit 1 race to \"pay for\" the data.

Before deciding whether or not to buy the TG data I look at the entries and then the weather. This has been the WORST Belmont meet from a weather standpoint. So frustrating. The third step for me is Brisnet. I handicap every race using Ultimate PPs from Brisnet. Depending on how wide open a race/card is I then go to TG. TG speed figures and race shapes help me separate my potential contenders from the pretenders.

Hope that helps.
