The Capper


Price: $400
 
 

Get everything you need to know about every race in America in one program: THE CAPPER.

CONTROL THE INFORMATION.
Information everywhere. The modern handicapper is drowning in it. Open the Form � there are thousands of bits of information on each page. And yesterday's newspaper is tomorrow's birdcage liner. THE CAPPER presents all this data � past performances, charts, race reports, trainer/jockey/pedigree stats, general reports � in an elegant and easy-to-use format suitable for the information age.

KNOW WHAT'S WINNING IN EACH RACE YOU FACE.
Every handicapper wants an edge. That edge no longer comes from the amount of data you have. It now largely comes from knowing what info is important in THIS race. THE CAPPER tracks the success of 18 predictors encompassing speed, pace, class, energy, trainer, jockey, current form, pedigree, post position bias, running style bias, and more. Only those predictors that perform statistically better than they should in each situation are used � the rest are ignored. You'll find that, in some situations, early speed is king. In others, all you need is a good pedigree and a decent speed figure.

HAVE IT YOUR WAY:
THE IN-DEPTH HANDICAPPER'S TOOL.
If you want all the information, but want to massage it and get your own insights from it, THE CAPPER was designed for you. Dig into the past performances, choose contenders, pick pacelines, check out the statistics, hunt for nuances, generate a betting line, bet the overlays.

HAVE IT YOUR WAY:
THE LAZY MAN'S HANDICAPPING TOOL.
If (like me) you just want the betting line, or some other report, THE CAPPER was designed for you. Select your races, click a button, and your chosen Race Reports are automatically handicapped and printed out.

HAVE IT YOUR WAY:
THE PAPER-AND-PENCIL HANDICAPPER'S TOOL.
If you like to handicap the old-fashioned way, with a pencil and the pps, THE CAPPER was designed for you. Save a fortune on printed past performances. The Capper contains a modern past performance generator, which prints out pps in a format similar to that which we're all used to. And you'll have access to every thoroughbred track running in North America, not just the few local and simulcast tracks you get in your local edition.

KNOW THE MINIMUM ODDS YOU'LL ACCEPT.
When you buy a mutuel ticket, you're buying a chance at a payoff. Only by betting overlays, horses going off at odds higher than they should be, can you make a profit in the long run. THE CAPPER's Betting Line points you straight to those overlays. But here's the catch: at some tracks, overlays are consistently profitable. At others, horses rarely win unless they're getting heavy toteboard action. At others, nothing seems to consistently predict the winners except tea leaves and astrology. It's essential that you know which tracks are profitable, and in what way, before you jump in. THE CAPPER's Top Five Win% and ROI report breaks down each track that you play, so you can kill (financially speaking), not be killed.

GET GREAT TRAINER, JOCKEY AND PEDIGREE STATS.
Get access to statistics for every horse without having to look them up in a booklet. With only a click, you can view trainer, jockey, trainer/jockey and pedigree stats for each horse. Even hard-to-find dam statistics are included.

ONE FREE CUSTOM SPOT PLAY WITH PURCHASE.
With your purchase, we're now offering a custom-programmed spot play of your design. You design a spot play of your choice which targets a certain type of horse in a certain type of race. You can include up to seven total conditions. See the Spot Play Designer for more information and a form to explain your spot play. (If it's feasible programming-wise and within the seven-condition limit, then we'll have a hack at it. There is sometimes some give-and-take until we nail down definite programmable rules for your spot play.)  Integrated into THE CAPPER, you'll also get a report which continually tracks your spot play and analyzes it by breaking it down into a bunch of subcategories with statistics such as win% and ROI for each subcategory.

Note: THE CAPPER uses HDW race data, which costs $100 per calendar month for unlimited downloading. You must call HDW at 502-570-0333 to set up your subscription. You'll be charged monthly. Data costs are not refundable once any files have been downloaded during a month. 

Also, if you're interested in purchasing The Capper, but would prefer monthly payments, see The Capper Payment Plan.
