Forget precise data.
You need replays of races to study.
You need to know the classes, which is easy. You need to know the pattern of the dogs racing. You simply cannot bet unless you know what's going to happen out of the boxes, and you won't know what's going to happen out of the boxes UNLESS you know how each dog will jump, and what it will do next. Say you know 5 of the dogs ? do you know about the dog on the inside of your fancy. I used to get the "Yellow" guide, forgot the name of it, and it was the bible. BUT it didn't tell you just how fast the dogs were out of the boxes compared to the others. It didn’t tell you just how much speed the dog could must if it were 3rd going to the first turn. It didn’t tell you if it threw the towel in if it was checked.
You cannot go in half cocked because the odds are short, but there has been and always will be really good things at 3/1 going around, but you need to know how the race is going to be run, especially early.
