Hi Josh,

How are you bud?

From the looks of your recent posts, world domination is nigh!

Agreed it's a little quiet on here at present. I'm super busy with other commitments but am still in the game big time on Saturdays.

I don't have a formula but I do pay a lot of attention to speed and where my horse should sit in running. Back in the day, I didn't realise it made such a difference and couldn't work out why the bookies had certain horses so short. I've found, it's because in most races with horses of limited ability, the chasers simply can't sprint off a slow speed.

Horses with low win strike rates and high place strike rates are more often than not, backmarkers. They get going when the bird has flown.

One thing I do always check before I even look at the form is the rail position, as this massively changes the equation especially on tight turning tracks like Ipswich etc.


Hope this adds a little spice to your 'Speed map curry'
