I get my Form from the GRV Website.
Formguides like from The Watchdog display the actual time ran by the animal.
I can't help you with sources elsewhere.

Dogs are about a metre long so a length would be a metre.
They usually run about about 15 metres per second towards the end of the race , so thats what I use , 15 lengths to a second.
But like I said , the work is already been done with the Victorian guides.

I posted an Excel Sheet that I ripped off from member Kennedy91210 that downloads FormLines from eForm at GRV.

If you interested it is an attachment somewhere in this Forum.

Thanks for that moeee, this data is not from there, so I will have to check this by going back to the actual race and see which dog has won and see if the time is the same or not.

Much appreciated.
Cheers

I'm thinking that the 1&2 may get held up early as the 1 pushes off track, leaving the 4 & 7 leading I don't think the #8 runs either of those down

I dunno if its just because of the roller coaster nature of punting , but I have finally got a couple of collects to get back half of the massive losses I incurred over the past week or so.

Or have I found a better way of handicapping?
3 more races to go , and i feel if i profit overall on the next 3 , then I am in.
