I look through the form the night before and then sit down on the morning of the races and try to get a good knowledge of the ground, I do this by looking at different sites including the homepages for each track.
I choose horses that have won or been placed on the ground, and especially like horses who have course and distance form. I do this because a few of the tracks are peculiar and any form on the track can be a big bonus. I like doing this at tracks like Brighton, Epsom and Chester.
I like for instance to study the draw at Ayr, especially when the track is riding on the softer side. I will be looking at those drawn high tomorrow.
Do all the other members have specific criteria or is it just fancying horses or using the form?

by and large the going is the main deciding factor for me, at the moment due to the adverse weather im betting relatively little and small stakes, i always find the flat particularly difficult when it comes up really testing, the winners are that much more difficult to find, apart from that i tend to look for trainers in form etc, not sure i'll be playing too much this week due to the weather again, but shall be keeping a few quid in my tank for goodwood next week when i shall be lounging in southern spain for a fortnight internet betting, quaffing extremely cold lagers, and going out on ogling expeditions up and down the beaches - after a quick look the only one which stands out for me tomorrow is GOTHENBURG in the first at ayr, should have won at catterick bridge last time, is think its facing weaker opposition tomorrow, but shant be playing at odds on or even money at best - heres hoping the weather picks up!
bring on the beach babes
