As an outsider, I must confess I find the TAB form guide far inferior to that provided by the Racing Post in the UK.
That being said, it’s better than nothing but to be honest it’s no substitute for being on course to actually look at the horses in the paddock. It’s probably just as effective to follow the money but the best form guide, I’ve always found, is simply to watch a lot of races and form your own opinions.
'Big strong filly' perhaps but she's still only a baby...and its essentially three races in three weeks (not 4) Yo. The next race could flatten her. You can't blame the connections for wanting to have a crack at the big dollars ...can you? A few years ago, perhaps but now the incentives are there for 3 and 4yos not just the 2yos. She still has to win on 12 Jan to qualify and there will probably be others trying ..
Im not sure what Lily was thinking (with all due respect she is gooood) on Downtrou given what transpired earlier on the card at Trentham, i would love to know if it was a decision made pre race ? She certainly looked keen to get centre track earlier in the Day.? Get Doyle back on and in the winners circle,...🙄 looks good for further and looking forward to seeing the string of wins that looks inevitable with the right combination....thats racing they say
There are dozens every day. The TAB know that. I have spoken to them about this for 4 months now, and all they say is it will improve. That is rubbish because nothing has improved.
It's just not the comments that provide false advertising. The form stats also have errors everywhere. Race 5 at Greymouth today In Vegas .. quotes has the old " has won on wet and dry " .. then the stats quote 1 start on soft for nothing. That is despite it running 2nd two starts back.
These errors are everywhere, and you could say it's actually fraudulent when people are spending their hard earned. They are being decieved.

Most comments are repetitive - l guess that's how AI works.
"Can handle it wet or dry" when the track has been a Good 4 all week.
And it can do this and that "tellingly", which, once again if talking about and unchanged track is irrelevant.
Then it's not just a "top tier selection", it's always "for sure" or "without a doubt". False advertising in many cases 🤣
Na. Soft win yesterday on a Soft track. Big strong filly. Backing up next week then two weeks to the KM.
The test will be how she handles the Ellerslie surface.
Already farcical including the repetitive Multiple Class rider comment when a horse is against almost the same opposition but going from Listed to G3 or R65 to R75 .
And for petes sake learn how to spell unlike this sort of regular illiteracy
Thret for sure in this. SACRED SATANO (3) has been G1 placed before.
