I wish tracks would post ROI data for Drivers / Trainers / and Post Positions
Statsmaster at Trackmaster has ROIs for DR/TR but not post.
Here's what I have for Buffalo last year, not official.
Code:
Post BR PP1 PP2 PP3 PP4 PP5 PP6 PP7 PP8
Starts BR 800 800 800 800 780 767 733 469
% Wins BR 24% 16% 16% 18% 15% 8% 4% 3%
Dev from Exp* BR 81% 22% 22% 31% 12% -37% -68% -74%
ROI BR 0.75 0.80 0.72 1.03 0.77 0.67 0.52 0.43
*This is the Trackmaster number seen in the program beneath the Post number.
It is the deviation from what a "non post biased" track should be,
meaning in 8 horse fields, all posts should win 1/8th of the time.
The BR / BTVA numbers for the rail are the worst in the industry.
BR 81%
BTVA 97%
FHLD 62%
FLMD 17%
HAR 50%
LON 60%
MR 34%
NFLD 42%
STGA 57%
YR 47%
