OptixNOTES EX (excuse) grade is very unique and effective handicapping tool

DEFINITION: EX  – A horse that can be excused for their most recent effort. Since 2015 horses with this grade designation have shown a next out flat bet ROI$

Here is a recent example of EX next out winner at 10/1.

 

Keep it simple with Optix Fig Range (OFR)

OptixNOTES – Runners with Green keywords have significantly higher Win%, ROI$ in their next race

Important NOTE – Use Surface instead of Surface/Distance PLOT filter for two-turn 7.5f Turf races

This time of the year tracks like Gulfstream Park and FairGrounds begin to run their two-turn 7.5f  grass sprints. These races play more like routes than sprints. Therefore when using the OptixpLOT filter you want to use Surface instead of  Surface/Distance for those race types.

 

OptixPLOT RPM shows how well a horse’s plot position matches its preferred run style – see example LaurelPark R7
