Even though I generally don’t bet in maid through to class 5 as a rule more so to rely on class helping the form and sometimes its hard to break old habits from doing form as systems are about finding the winner at the right price any where you can which is not quite the same as doing from because you need the form to work across the field to give you the best chance of success on overs.

I used to do form but it is very hard to watch your best bet of the day that you spent hours on research and videos to come up with either a)miss the start, b)get bumped or checked from a slow horse, c)get slaughtered by the jockey, d)not want to race that day e)get distracted by a nice looking filly (haven't we all?) or f)any other reason or all of the above.
I prefer to spend my hours researching my systems now and if a selection wins that's great and if it loses I don't stress because I know I will have another gem thrown up again in the near future or even in the next race. The most important thing is to do what works well for YOU, stick with it and refine it where you can.
Cheers,
Mat.
