Good morning...
Now that things have returned to normal in my little village...
I can fully get back to work.
I shall start by working on the Trainer information; similar to what I publish at Intelligent Betting.
But, as it will be you guys who may (or may not) use the information...
I really need to know how you will use it and what information you want.
Now, I imagine that you only want the information for those trainers who have horses running today.
I imagine that you may also want both overall strike rate and course specific strike rate.
Would you also want to see how that Trainer's over strike rate has varied over time (to see which trainers are hot?)
Is there anything so obviously obvious that I have not even considered?
I'd be interested to know your thoughts.
