this dont look a bad app ... gives you animated runners in the race and a computerised animated of how the race maybe run ... from google playstore

What exactly is the difference between a computer animation of how a race might be run and a tipster giving a tip?

there is very little difference derek its merely a tool showing you in detail ie the horses that like to be held up and the front runners ........ as for tips it gives a good insight like any other racing aid ..ie like racing post or sporting life ...
what do you use derek luck or have you got a masterplan i could follow :)

I've got it - the front runners will be at the front of the simulation and the hold-up horses will be at the back. :lol: You could easily imagine that in your head!

Computer animations are generally gimmicks aimed at people who assume computers can do anything better than humans. I'm not criticising the app - I'm sure it's got useful features, it's just that I personally find simulations patronising. :)

When I was a punter I obviously studied past performances, used form books and considered the pace of the race and how it's likely to be run crucial, but I wouldn't need an animation.

By the way, does it do a full 8-minute animation of a three-and-a-half mile chase, or is it one of those time saving simulations where every race is a 2-furlong sprint?

If expressing an opinion on a tool's usefulness makes me an expert then I'm an expert on anything and everything. ;)

My method of picking selections was really simple, and one that many bettors would use. I'd decide what price I think each horse was worth backing at, and back the horse if I can get that price.
