#4 Bundle Award checks plenty of boxes for the in-form John Size stable, heading into this race third-up after two promising efforts. He closed strongly for ninth on debut from a wide draw behind Johannes Brahms, before finishing a close-up third to Packing Angel second-up. With barrier 4 and James McDonald booked to ride, he is ready to win. #9 Romantic Son steps up to 1400m for the first time, which remains an unknown, but his current form over 1200m suggests he is on the verge of a win. #3 Sy Trust possesses good ability but has breathing issues, as evidenced when he pulled up as a roarer in his last outing. He set a strong early pace and understandably faded late, finishing a respectable seventh, 2.5 lengths off the Mickley. He has trialled well in the interim. #10 New Forest debuts for the Mark Newnham stable and should race handy from barrier 3, based on his Australian form. His lead-up trials have been encouraging, and he is expected to acquit himself well.

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

Chances are you’re about to lose.
