Steve Crist touches on this topic in his column for Saturday's DRF . Mr. Crist said that Woodbine will expand the use of Trakus.


The next use of Trakus, beginning at Woodbine this summer, will be to collect similarly accurate internal points of call and margins in the charts of races. Despite relying heavily on this data when reading past performances, most players probably do not realize just how much approximation is involved in the current system of visual observation by a chart caller.

This was only one paragraph from Mr. Crist's column which is available online at DRF for subscribers only, and the print edition of the Form. Hopefully this trial of Trakus is a success and is implemented at all race tracks.
