I've noticed they have had a big change to the format of the book this year. Out goes the 'Major Player's write ups of each horse which has been replaced with information and opinions from 4 racing journalists.

The Major Player's write up for the Grade 1 races can now be bought separately for a tenner.....

I've bought this book 18 years on the run but if it has changed to a purely statistics book it will probably be the last time I buy it as there the stats are freely available on the Internet.

Let's see what the book is like.

Glasses or not, from what I've read so far it's a huge improvement o previous years.

The Introduction articles on Thinking Biases and Predictability Factors are light years ahead of stuff that's been in there previously
