#4 Ensued was a tough watch last start after enduring a torrid run in the Champions & Chater Cup. He was posted deep and worked hard throughout, yet still fought on bravely for sixth. He’s looked sharp in a recent trial and back in trip suits. #10 Bundle Award comes through the same race where he got back too far. He closed off strongly for fifth and the step back in distance is key. #8 Pray For Mir notched his first Group race win last start with an audacious all-the-way effort. He doesn’t need to lead again, but his on-pace style fits this map. #11 Californiatotality is best forgiven for his last-start failure on the all-weather when found lame. He’s a three-time winner from four course and distance runs and is capable of bouncing back.

INTERACTIVE FORM

Racing And Sports has two quality interactive form systems which you as the user can adjust to your own specific tastes and thoughts. We've detailed below how to use both the Neurals and Worksheet areas of a race guide.

Neurals

These are computer enhanced analyses of all the areas which go into making up a race field. They factor in algorithms for every contingency as explained below and added them up to generate the likely best horse in a race.

When you go into them via the Form Guide page you simply run your mouse over any column and you can sort the field by any individual type of Neural Rating which determines the final total (and therefore best rater).

Explanation of Inputs for Neural Analysis

CP Career performance assessment based on weight/class algorithms
CF Current form measured by class/weight algorithms
TIM Revolutionary time assessment (adjusted algorithm)
JA Jockey ability algorithm
TA Trainer ability algorithm
JT Jockey/trainer combination algorithm
WT Wet track performance algorithm
Crs Course suitability algorithm
D Distance suitability algorithm
$ Prizemoney earned algorithm
BP Barrier position (course & distance) algorithm
DLR Days since last run algorithm
  • The user sets the level of importance from the Preference Scale (1 to 5 or No) for each algorithm and the output weightings are listed within seconds.
  • The Neural factor analysis will quickly identify for you just who are the main chances in each race, the highest to the lowest based on the factor weightings
