Whether you’re a new form study student or a seasoned pro, we have every angle covered!
Hear from the At The Races and Sky Sports Racing experts on their favourite form study tools:
"Attheraces.com is an invaluable tool for me when I'm preparing for a broadcast. The Market Movers section is something not found on other sites and I use that daily. The Stable Tours are useful and are updated regularly, and the race replay library is also essential for me. I'm also a regular reader of featured blogs and tipping columns".
“While other racing websites stutter, At The Races just gets better and better. The pace charts, providing a colour-coded grid or bar showing the early position forecast for each runner, are invaluable. But without doubt it’s the Video Library that I want to highlight. It’s superb and Replays upload fast. Remember your eyes are the best betting tool you have."
“Watching the evolution of attheraces.com over the last 15 years has been quite something. The constant push to improve and innovate in that time has resulted in a website that not only has so many different form study angles covered, but has them covered thoroughly in an accessible style. I use the Pace Charts, Market Movers and Race Replays on a daily basis and the Stable Tour Quotes are a great reference point. Form students in this part of the world really don't realise how fortunate they are to have access to such an incredible resource and study tool as this for free.”
“I love the fact that you don’t have to navigate between sites now when studying form for races, with access to all of the races in the UK & Ireland on the site. My most used tool when studying form is the Future Form icon when studying the result of a race. For maidens and novice hurdles it shows you the whether a race has had multiple winners come from it, or none!”
“The wealth of data on attheraces.com is the fundamental fuel which allows me to dissect and discuss races in such depth, both before and after. The sectional times and sectional tools tabs available for each and every race enables an at-a-glance assessment of how a race was run and which horses did well in that context, and that gives you confidence in conclusions which are based more on fact than feeling. I couldn’t and wouldn’t analyse a race without it.
“The race replay accessibility on attheraces.com is second to none. Not only from a domestic point of view with all UK and Irish replays now available for free, but it is also an integral part of my US form study. There are plenty of factors that you need to consider when studying a race to find the best possible bet and/or most logical winner, but watching replays is the most important.”
“I use Market Movers a lot, particularly for US racing, as it gives you a really quick read on where the money’s going and how the market is developing. The pace charts are also a key tool for me when assessing how a race might unfold, and Future Form makes it so easy to gauge the strength of a race at a glance.”
“The race replays and pace maps are my go-to on attheraces.com. Being able to quickly see how a race played out, who’s likely to get their own way up front, and where the smart angles lie is a massive help when studying form. Simple, sharp, and best of all - it’s there for free.”
“The first thing I check on a race is the market. I like that I can order runners by the strength of the market movement in their favour from strongest (most backed) to weakest (biggest drifter). I do the same with the pace tab to see where the pace is across the field. Once I'm into more detail I use the drop down filters on individual horse's form. My favourite is probably the class measure which shows how a horse does in that grade of race. There's so many great tools that can really speed up your study now.”
“My two key things I use a lot are the pace maps, as of course horse race position shapes their chances and the make up the entire race. The other key one I love are the Course Guides from former jockeys as there is no one better to tell you how a course needs riding or how best to win there than someone who has done it many times over. I think Fitzy and Weaver’s titbits on the tracks are fabulous and they especially have helped me over the years with some of the smaller jump tracks I’m not very familiar with.”
