- Form cycle - Searching Wizard Plus
Better betting - Specialise - Form cycle - Searching Wizard Plus
Over the past few days I have been discussing the Form Cycle of the racehorse and how it might be analysed.
Both Wizard and Wizard Plus can be of great assistance.
The Wizard formguide provides the stats for 1st-up run through to 7th-up. Also, in the written comment reference is normally made about the horse's previous form when resuming or is 2nd-up.
Wizard Plus goes a lot further in its Stats and Facts option and provides extensive form history that can be reviewed chronologically or sorted to highlight certain information.
What follows are just some extracts for Ekaterina, trained by Robert Heathcote in Brisbane,
Note: To fit the following screens into the available space I have posted only extracts from the full data screens.
First, the overall record of Ekaterina, with the wins and placing colour coded.
