Your daily selection process

[scotty657]

What is your normal routine for finding your bets for the day? For me at the moment I spend an hour or so going through the races on the Racing Post site in the morning. Or when there's a lot on like tomorrow I'll look the day before. Use Timeform for jockey and trainer form and so on as well. What about you?

Re: Your daily selection process I like to have a look at the main trends of a race. To get a feel of the sort of horse that has won the race in the past. That can narrow down the field. Or try and pick out an improver, or an angle - new trainer - up in trip - back off a long layoff - horse not running while going is soft comes back when better ground. First time out form. Runners from other countries - why is a horse there. I'd sum it up by saying I'm looking for "something" rather than pounds per length type of comparison.
