Tried to use some expected values in SQL UDMs and wasn't sure if any/all are dependent on raceday tote odds.

upropinionprob
uprzscoreprob
euprzscoreprob

and this one wouldn't work (need correct spelling):
euptoteprob


Thanks!

Probability estimates before the odds are known:

UPROpinionProb
UPRZScoreProb
UPRMLProb
JPRMLProb





Numbers after the odds are known:

BettorsToteProb
EBettorsToteProb
EUPRZScoreProb
JPRToteprob
OR3

Is there a way to get rank and gap for:

(Probability estimates before the odds are known:)
UPROpinionProb
UPRZScoreProb
UPRMLProb
JPRMLProb

in SQL mode?

Cut and paste from the Table Schema:
http://www.jcapper.com/helpdocs/starterhistorytableschema.html


mline number single morning line odds
rankmline number integer rank morning line odds
mlor number single MLOR - morning line odds ratio
mlor2 number single MLOR2 – morning line odds ratio 2
mlor3 number single MLOR3 – morning line odds ratio 3

bettorstoteprob number single BettorsToteProb - prob based on proprietary algorithm and post time odds
rankBettorsToteProb number integer rank BettorsToteProb

jprtoteprob number single JPRToteProb - prob based on JPR and post time odds
uprtoteprob number single UPRToteProb - prob based on UPR and post time odds
uprzscoreprob number single UPRZScoreProb - prob based on normalized ZScore distribution of UPR
upropinionprob number single UPROpinionProb - prob based on rank and gap of UPR

aprob number single AProb (JRating enabled users only)
rankaprob number integer rank AProb
gapaprob number single gap AProb

jprmlprob number single JPRMLProb
rank jprmlprob number integer rank JPRMLProb
gap jprmlprob number single gap JPRMLProb

uprmlprob number single UPRMLProb
rank uprmlprob number integer rank UPRMLProb
gap uprmlprob number single gap UPRMLProb

or3 number single OR3 Odds Ratio 3
ebettorstoteprob number single Expected Value BettorsToteProb
euprzscoreprob number single Expected Value UPRZScoreProb
ejptoteprob number single Expected Value JPRToteProb
euptoteprob number single Expected Value UPRToteProb





JPRMLProb: Yes
Use RANKJPRMLPROB and GAPJPRMLPROB as your sql expression handles.

UPRMLProb: Yes
Use RANKUPRMLPROB and GAPUPRMLPROB as your sql expression handles.




UPROpinionProb and UPRZScoreProb: No

On the no's -

not even as a if I use translate
for a UserFactor?

And if I wanted to ditch one of my UserFactors,
how would I find out which UDM's currently have
UF5 in the criteria? Is there an easy way?

No. (That's the short answer.)




No. It's a chicken or the egg type of thing. You can't pull an egg out of thin air unless you have a chicken first because the chicken has to make the egg.

That might be a little deep. But it's the non technical short version of the long answer.




For anyone who might be interested, here's the technical version:

You can't use UPROpinionProb and UPRZScoreProb as inputs for UserFactors and UPR because doing so would violate the chain of events executed by the program when you click the Calc Races or Build Database buttons.

UPROpinionProb and UPRZScoreProb are two of the very last things created by the program's event chain. Both get created after UserFactors and UPR are created - and both UPROpinionProb and UPRZScoreProb require UPR as an input before they can be created.

Here's a link to an older thread where the topic of the program's event chain is presented:

When you run a UDM through the Data Window, the UDM Definition gets displayed in the header area as part of your results.

So pick a UDM, run it through the Data Window - and take a look at the UDM Definition. You should be able to see at a glance if you've included a UserFactor as part of the UDM Definition.
