Racehorse TALK

Looks terrific on first look PW 

I would suggest a clearer labelling of the race time in the dogs.

For the dogs I have cross checked and see the time provided is the adjusted time for the dog in each race.

The heading is not clear on this and could easily be interpreted as the winning time in the race.

amazing

it's nearly as good as the form ToteTas had in 2003

2nd thing, I'm sorry but the form of previous runs not including the box the dog comes from renders the form of little use.

Could someone post the website urls so I can have a look?

Thanks Ara - that is actually meant to be there - it's just not appearing for some reason - the data is definitely available and I also agree re that race time header - suggest something like 'runners time' would be a better description?

Praiseworthy,

Runs are missing from a horses form which is unhelpful to say the least eg Bunbury Race 4 winner Smart Winner appears to be second up for a 2200m race which might lead some ( sniff ) to take it on. However it was not in fact second up at all but having its fourth run in and was cherry ripe.

Expanded form has the starts but why not the initial page? They should be the same.

Fours

'runners time' would be perfect but I guess that depends on the spacing you have available to you.

Its in the same spot as the DFS form use to appear in you NSW or VIc account.

Fours - I may be on the drink - but if trhe runenr you mean is Smart Twister then both the sumary form and detailed form indiocate it was 4th up.

Praiseworthy,

NSW TAB
Has "1" only for form ( ie what you see for last 5 runs before you click on the horses name ) whereas:-

Expanded ( when you click on the horses name ) it has "f121" ad below that details of the runs

I repeat that pre click, and post click the last 5 runs should be the same - they are not.

Fours

thanks fours - judging by my spelling errors in the last post it is me who was on the drink.

I've now seen what you mean and yep - straight out error - the summary should match the expanded and for this animal it doesn't

thanks PW

Thats pretty good for free form.

One thing I've never understood with greyhound form (and the TAB isn't the only site that does it). Why include the weight of the greyhound at its previous runs if you don't know what weight it will be for this race ?

It may explain why a greyhound ran poorly or well previously but it doesn't really help you for the upcoming race.

Haven't had a chance to check out the gallops form. Will it be similar to that on Racenet or are there some added features ?

Tremendous improvement. A few good ones : A Video short clip/full clip for all previous runs, for the 3 codes   An in-running position e.g '3-3-1', a stewards indicator column e.g slow away etc.
