Trotter Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I've been looking at the US Racing for a week or so but I'm still flummoxed by the form on the Sky Sports At The Racing Website The racecards appear to be OK but when you click on the horse's name to bring up it's form it all goes to pot Take an example ....... 7.07 at Gulfstream tonight, the horse 'Summer Mischief' On the card it's form figures read 1809-62 Yet on it's form page the last race shown was a Win on 26th Feb Is that the 1 from 6 races ago ? ........ has it run 5 times since then but the races haven't been entered on the form page According to the card it finished 2nd last time out but looking at it's form page it hasn't finished 2nd since Dec 2017 and there 11 races listed since then It's baffling ....... it's difficult enough trying to pick winners but when you evidently don't have simple to use form it's impossible !

calva decoy Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 GULFSTREAM have their own site. Equibase are another decent one for form as is At The Races website. I signed up for timeformus , now that is baffling , it's all about race pace. One thing I did stumble across during UK & Irish lockdown is the Hong Kong Jockey Clubs website when there is a meeting at Sha Tin or Happy Valley , superb ?

BillyHills Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Most US sites you have to pay, worse than the Racing Post!! Equibase and Daily Racing Form are the most popular. Best Aussie site is Racing & Sports https://www.racingandsports.com/race-day Punters AU covers Hong Kong as well https://www.punters.com.au/form-guide/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darran Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 If you are betting on Victoria and south Australian racing then racing.com is the only site you need. It’s free and you can watch replays as well. I also recommend downloading a paper called Winning Post which comes out on a Thursday. It’s the paper I buy when I’m in Australia and they have just started putting it online which has been incredibly helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trotter Posted April 20, 2020 Author Share Posted April 20, 2020 Given that I don't feel as though I'm geting the full information on the US Racing I'm still doing OK with it Makes you wonder whether poriing over the form for hours for UK races is really necessary ...... ? I've often thought that the longer I spend on a race the less confident I am about any selection ....... after a while you convince yourself either that every horse will win or that none of them will Less information equals less confusion !

BillyHills Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 It makes it even worse when you dont 100% know if it going to be run on the AW or Turf. They change their minds half way through as meeting!! I did wonder why they didnt state C/D winners on the card, its because they cant be sure on which surface it will run on. Trotter, they do barrier trials and stuff and they are sometimes on the form and not on others. It may explain why some form figures don't add up.

Darran Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 If it rains then they move races off the turf to the dirt in the us. Usually decided before a meeting starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love some of the comments , I looked at 7.15 WRD where the PL ( in green ) predicts All The Juice at about 7/2 , looked at some previous form & couldn't help notice on July 12th 2019 over 8f finished 8th because the horse " failed to menace " ??? brilliant quote !

BillyHills Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Free from what i can see. Lots of stats to look at, dont seem to update cards until day of race which is a bit annoying as i need to get tips up earlier sometimes. I have some that fail to menace? calva decoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
