Laying horses is completely different to backing horses of course and carries quite a large risk, especially if you are laying horses at fairly big prices. Depending on the price of an unsuccessful lay, it will usually take a few winning lays just to get back to where you were before.In effect you are the bookmaker […]
I was playing around with the system builder yesterday, looking for ideas, ways and strategies on how to successfully lay last time out winners.It appears that in all handicap races on the flat turf, since 2018 – the rules I chose to get started on this angle – about 17% of horses that won last […]
Nothing lasts forever and that includes the basic web site structure that we have been using behind the scenes since Inform Racing began back in 2003.Unfortunately, after over 21 years there are a few things now which are just starting to lag or creek a little and in a data fuelled sport such as Horse […]
I was looking at the stats regarding the favourites recently and as you will probably be aware, they generally win about 35% of all races.This figure has increased over the past few years, probably down to how accurate the odds have become on the betting exchanges and predominantly Betfair.I say accurate, but of course this […]
We have made some additions to the system builder in the last few weeks, including a new feature that will help those who like to trade in running.First of all we have tidied up the drop down list of rules that can be used, by dividing the ‘Horse’ group into three.We now have the general […]

The speed ratings will provide you with a number of ways to find winners. But what about using the speed rating class pars to narrow down the field?You can see the class par for each race in the race header at the top of each race card, followed by an H.The class par figure, shows […]
We have now added the ability for users to choose from a massive 219 different form and ratings Result Breakdown categories, rather than just the 43 we had set as the default previously.Those 43 are still set as default and if you want to keep those then you don’t need to do anything.However, you are […]
I have been looking more and more at backing horses at bigger prices lately, mainly as a result of sending out some daily selections to subscribers, which at first included two win bets and an each way bet each day.After five months I decided to stop posting the win bets, as despite a not too […]
I have written a few posts in the past on this subject and it’s one I like to return to now and then because it is something most punters are interested in.I think a lot of us who have been betting for a while know that around 50% to 70% of all handicap winners, I […]
