Form study: horse, jockey, trainer and sire history

Every name in a racecard is a door into the form book. Click it to see that horse, jockey, trainer or sire's full race history.

Want to dig into a runner before you back it? RatingTheRaces has a built-in form book. Click the name of any horse, jockey, trainer or sire in a racecard and their history page opens in a new tab, so you never lose your place in the ratings.

What you'll see

The history page is laid out exactly like a racecard, one row per past run, with the same columns you use every day: finishing position, ISP, RTR figures, age, sex and the rest. That means no new layout to learn, you read old races the same way you read today's.

• Use the settings gear to choose which columns show, just like the main ratings. See Customising your ratings view.
• Long histories are split into pages, and the table scrolls sideways on smaller screens.
• The full ratings columns follow your membership, Premium and Pro members see the complete data on past runs, Free members the basic set.

Add a horse to NagMe while you study

On a horse's history page there's an Add To Nagme button. If the form convinces you, click it, add an optional note about what you spotted, and we'll email you the evening before that horse next runs. See Managing your NagMe list.

A quick workflow

1. Spot an interesting runner in today's ratings.
2. Click its name, scan the history: does it handle the trip, the ground, the course?
3. Check the trainer and jockey pages the same way for current form.
4. Not ready to back it today? Add To Nagme and let us watch it for you.
