Regardless of whether or not anyone believes in the dosage theory, it's surprising to me that the folks behind this site wouldn't update their information to provide it correctly to their customers. Makes me wonder what other false info they are providing?

That site also offers pay per view for various data. The reclassification of a horse to chef-de-race would have to be done internally by the site managers. That is not a function that a customer, paying or otherwise, can do.

They only need to adjust the sire and the offspring dosages will self-calculate. I'm most disappointed in the lack of customer service from PedigreeQuery, as I have called and E-mailed on this matter and no one will respond. If they are willing to accept my money, they ought to be willing to respond to inquiries as to why their data is incorrect.

It's apparently on Miles to do it. Roguelet doesn't have the authority. I'm beginning to think Miles is like the Wizard in the Wizard of Oz.

Not to act like it's all cool to take someone's money w/o being a little more attentive but every year somebody rants about how little dosage means nowadays in their opinion and that it's lousy to pick your Derby horse based on it but they just have to have the correct number this second? Ugh. AP Indy just switched over for pete's sake. The world won't end if folks have to wait a couple days and I doubt a sale has been aborted with one person chasing the other down the driveway going 'no I promise! AP Indy is a Chef-de-race now! Miles will fix it eventually!' Really? Are we gonna get upset with stud farms for listing a stallion as 16.1 when you know DARN well they're no more than 15.3? I mean some of them just flat out puff it up. I say give Miles a few more days for something that isn't gonna change lives if it's not done right away.

It's not good business because it makes you question 'what else might be wrong' but it's hardly ripping you off. It's a free/subscriber mix and that's not part of your paid-for package.

Restroom usage in a McDonald's is free but are you suddenly paying for it if you buy a Big Mac Meal? No you're paying for them to fix you food and the food you receive is what you get in return for your money. The restroom is still free. The one paying for the service of providing/cleaning the bathroom is the McDonald's company. Pedigreequery.com is the one picking up the cost of the basic stats service and it's part of what draws people in to pay for other things but you are not paying for dosage numbers.
