#7 Oldtown reunites with Zac Purton, who was aboard for his first-up win this season when he was trained by Chris So. Today marks his third start for Mark Newnham and the booking looks timely after two encouraging efforts where his trip has not been ideal. Barrier 1 should give him a better set-up. #5 Dancing Blaze raced wide without cover on debut but stuck on well for fourth, beaten a little over five lengths. From barrier 3 second-up, he maps for a much kinder run and can take a step forward. #2 Malpensa broke through for his first win last start after threatening to do so in several runs prior. He remains in the numbers. #1 Speedy Smartie draws wide in barrier 12 but has the early speed to come across. He has been a revelation for Brett Crawford this season, missing the placings just once from 10 starts, and has again trialled as well as ever between runs.

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
