    I think these were written more with potential customers in mind, but you may find them of interest. I lifted them from the timeform website.

    Handicapping Two-Year-Olds

    There is a common misconception that handicapping involves little more than guessing which horse has “run to formâ€ÂÂ

    You’d think with all that brainpower and technology at their disposal Timeform would be a lot better than they are. I stopped subscribing many years ago because I proved to myself I can do it better.

    Maurice I do not normally agree with your posts but as regards timeform I agree heartily, Waste of money, flatstats much better value

    Do you all factor into your ratings unusual slow starts; blocked tentative runs; held up when prefers to be up with the pace; leads when needs to come from behind; hates the whip but is whipped; needs a reminder but none is forthcoming; wrong distance; wrong ground; even wrong track(prefers left to right); etc.<br>Then lo and behold, pops up and wins at 12/1, having been favourite four runs ago and soundly beaten since.
