Hi..

Does this factor work?

I get nothing when running it against several pl files

Hey Mike,

Give the info in the following older threads a try.

I don't think you're following what I was trying to say.

Long story short: Because you are not JRating enabled the TOSSOUT filter code won't work for you because it uses JRating as one its factor inputs.

Instead of using the filter code itself - try using factor constraints - just as if you were using them in a standard UDM.

In the thread at the following link: Replicating Jack B's "Tossout" in playlist file mode, in the 6th post down from the top of the page, I posted the following:

--Quote:

"

Ever watch a Simpsons episode and crack up when Homer Simpson does something really stupid and then says "DOH!"

One of the factor constraints in the TOSSOUT definition is that rank for JRating must be >= 5

If you aren't JRating enabled then your copy of the program isn't able to make the JRating rank evaluation for Jack B's TOSSOUT - and the result is zero plays found.

DOH!

"
--End Quote.

Also, in that same post (the 6th one down from the top) I posted a suggested set of factor constraints for non JRating enabled JCapper users that will produce results almost identical to those produced by the "TOSSOUT" preset filter code.

--Quote:

"

JPR min rank = 5
Late Pace (best 3) min rank = 4
Prime Power min rank = 6
Bris Speed Figure (best 10) min rank = 5
Lifetime Starts min val = 1
Preset Filter: FORX avoid Foreign Horse

"
--End Quote.

Then, in the very next post, I posted Data Window results driven by a UDM that I created using a similar set of factor constraints:

--Quote:

"

Was playing around this morning with negative factor combinations. Came up with something fairly simple and straightforward. It uses factors from JCapper 2007 and later and finds a lot more weak horses than the original Tossout preset filter.

Don't use the filter code. Try using factor constraints instead.

The above posted results are based on older Brisnet data.

I spent a few minutes this morning and created a UDM designed to toss horses from contention using HDW data.

The UDM definition is pretty simple:

JPR min rank: 5
PRating min rank: 4
FigConsensus min rank: 5
ClassConsensus min rank: 5
Lifetime Starts min val: 1
Foreign Horse: No

Running the UDM through the Data Window in sql mode, here is what I get for all starters at all N American tracks for calendar years 2011 and 2012:


     query start:         1/6/2013 11:11:09 AM
     query end:           1/6/2013 11:12:33 AM
     elapsed time:        84 seconds

     Data Window Settings:
