SHAPESHIFTER

Looking over the past few weeks and the results that races have thrown up, it becomes apparent that the weather and going has made things difficult for the punter to find a winner.

Earlier this month, I had excellent success finding each way selections to the tune of a 40%+ strike rate and a return that matched.

The following ten days, I might have had a dart board to make selections.

So when studying to find the 'weak faves', I think the next few weeks will be a 'transition' for racing.  Three year olds that showed little life will surprise us while older horses may find the faster pace as the ground dries out more challenging.

In other words, it is a matter of looking at all results, not just the races you played, to get a sense of where racing is progressing.



WEAK FAVES based on the quality of their field in previous races:

Musselburgh
3:30 Houston Dynimo

Yarmouth
2:50 Ihtifal
3:20 Virginia Galilei
4:50 Arch Walker

Best of luck with your day

RESULT Ihtifal won over 6 furlongs without a challenge from any other horses.  Houston Dynamo won but in a depleted field that changed the entire complexion of the race.
