    Haldon Gold Cup

    looks a reasonably competitive race i have a query over Dodging Bullets after a break..ok against gimme's..but not so good when oppo bites Garde La Victoire looks to me to under perfom on ground like this. these are first two in betting..must be some value here if these two are discarded

    Some race trends

    An interesting race to start with this afternoon is the Gordon Carter Handicap. Using % of oppo beaten v Betfair SP market expectation shows just how much certain groups of horses have performed in the past. A figure of 1.00 is a performance in line with beaten opponent expection. AGE...

    Statistics or Form Reading?

    anyone fancy discussing pro's and cons of these two approaches? Personally...i like both approaches and have had periods of using a mix of both and then just focussing on one aspect. I do like numbers...you probably didn't guess:) Many people think form reading is the best way..others use...

    Newmarket Other races

    been having a look at the rose bowl from a class/distance angle...might be a load of old nonsense but it fills a post up:) just using ...class A or higher... at distances of 12f+ ...throws up some interesting figures. For anyone not savvy with A/E....AE is a measure of performance v...

    Forum Value Hunt..Join in.

    This idea is not new..i've run this on forums years ago..its a good way of us working together to try and find one or two races per week that we all give our view of the chance each horse has in a race..its nothing serious..it might turn out to be very lucrative..it might be we find out we...

    John Smiths Cup

    for a bit of interest in a race i have a dire record in..so thought i might try and change that Draw 10F at York on Good or faster shows that the lowest 3rd under perform versus their odds. Throw out draws 1-6 Age 6yo + = 0/45 throw out 6yo+ Weight 9-4+ = 1/33 an they underperform a lot...
