*** Coming Soon:
-GAMBLER'S MATE: Thoroughbred Edition Dosage Master
This program is still under construction but more than 60% completed.
Dosage is a system that attempts to predict the distance potential of
horses based on certain sires in the first four generations of their
pedigrees. These certain sires are called chefs-de-race (french for
"chiefs of the breed").
Chefs are divided into five aptitudinal categories: Brilliant,
Intermediate, Classic, Solid and Professional. The categories correspond
to a range of distance potential from Brilliant (highest speed and lowest
stamina) to Professional (lowest speed and highest stamina). Classic
represents the "ideal" balance of speed and stamina. Many chefs are
assigned to two categories and their "points" split between those two
categories.
I have found that this program, even in its rawest form, has a distinct
advantage in the three year old triple crown races and their preps. If you
have not heard, this method is undefeated since 1929 (yes!) in the Kentucky
Derby. Horses with the allowable range of acceptable numbers (Dosage Index
of 4.0 or less and Center of Distribution of 1.25 or less) that are
calculated, have never lost a derby! Quite an impressive streak, wouldn't
you say?! The system had Unbridled (1990 Kentucky Derby winner) who paid
$21.60 for a single $2 wager.
Dosage Master features the ability to calculate, display, print and save
any thoroughbred's dosage index, dosage profile and center of distribution.
Send me a postcard if interested. It will be incentive to finish and
publicly release Dosage Master. Let me know what BBS you read this on and
also your experiences in horse racing and using the dosage method.
