Punting Form Race Reports are a data-driven approach to understanding the relative strengths of each runner in an upcoming race. Using benchmark ratings, the reports feature the most recent performances of each competitor and their respective personal bests within the last two years, as well as a speed map indicating likely settle positions and computer-generated price assessments.
Benchmarking is the process of converting times into a standardised figure that accounts for prevailing race conditions to provide a means of understanding the relative performance of any past run. The figures are expressed in lengths and the smaller (or more negative) the figure, the better (faster) the performance.
Speed map positions are based on the average historical settle position for each runner as a percentage of field size, while prices are drawn from Punting Form Neural Ratings, which take into account a broad range of 20 statistical factors.
No Mean Feet has placed second in each of his three races and, while the six-year-old gelding clearly has had issues - note his gear changes for his first run since September 2017 - he is an interesting competitor in the Off The Track-Supporting Retired WA Racehorses Maiden based on Punting Form's ratings. No Mean Feet boasts the most impressive Punting Form two-year personal best in the third event on Saturday's Ascot Racecourse card, an effort he produced when second to Another Story over 1,200 metres at Belmont Park on his last start.
You can download the Punting Form Race Reports for all eight Ascot Racecourse races on Saturday and they will appear in the club's racebook as well.
