Library Information for Thoroughbred 4.15
Program Title: Cambridge Thoroughbred Handicaper 4.15
Detailed Program Description:
This proven handicapping program allows you to analyze
Thoroughbred Races and pick likely winners quickly and easily,
even if you've never handicapped before. This release includes
the same updated formulas as Version 5, without the relational
database and its associated hardware requirements. Handicapping
factors include half-mile and final time, lengths behind, post
position, weight carried, jockey record, speed rating, track
variant, class and beaten favorite.
Who is the intended user?
People interested in handicapping and analyzing Thoroughbred
horse races.
If this is an update, improvements over old version:
This version is cosmetically similar to earlier versions but
contains major changes to handicapping formulas. Version 4.15 is
now better at handicapping longer races and better at weeding out
horses with early speed who fade at longer distances.
Does your program require any special requirements other than
256K memory, one floppy disk drive, and a monochrome monitor.
If yes, please list them:
None. Program will run in 256K on a single floppy.
How to start the program:
Type THORO and hit ENTER. Do NOT try to launch NTHO4SW.EXE
directly. The THORO.BAT file must be used to load the proper
screen drivers.
What is the registration fee for your program? $30.
Materials or services that come with registration:
Registered users receive an Enhanced version which will handicap
an entire race at once instead of individual horses. The Enhanced
version also includes full printed reports and the Wagermaster,
which shows estimated payoffs on different bets at a wide variety
of odds.
