Sportinglife keeps things simple…I like that. And it is sportinglife, not sportinglive as quadrilla seems to insist. talk about getting data correct!
I dont need to know what the ratings class of the rate was (ie 120-140), class B chase over 3m is all I need to know. And if 2 fences were omitted you will find the horses form includes that (as well as including if its a chase or a hurdle). If you dont like the site folks dont use it.
The missing or incorrect french form may be frustrating to some but I have no interest in overseas form so it doesn’t bother me.
Ok Marble, in your scenario then its important to accurate info. As someone who does not follow overseas racing then it doesn’t bother me. Thats the point i am making.
Marb, check out this site for French entries.

Armure has two entries this month both at Deauville.
Sorry Marble, I have no idea what your trying to say.
I say I like the site and you go on about propaganda and bha men and people talking shite etc.
I am not defending anything, let alone being forceful. In fact I actually agreed with you that if you wanted french form then sportinglife wasn’t ideal.
Everything I say on here is my view. I am not a journo and my typed english and grammar are bad so maybe things come across badly. Didn’t mean to offend you marb, or anyone for that matter.
Nothing personal but sometimes it seems the array of bookie reps, journo’s and BHA men to have nestled here have made people think this is a important place to talk their shite. At least i can say hand on heart my shite is independant, can you?

So people involved in the industry aren’t allowed to have an opinion? It may be an opinion based on their own status in the industry but is it any less worthy of attention than that of the rest of us? I find it slightly ironic that we get complaints of the racing authorities being secretive, and then when they come on here to put forward their line they get slagged off. They can’t win.
I’m glad people within the industry at all levels are happy to come to the Forum and add to the debate. It puts this forum a degree above one or two others.
Mind you, I’m not entirely sure what they has to do with the quality of the Sporting Life website. But maybe I’ve missed something…..

Sorry to be a pedant, but the RP don’t charge you for looking at a horse’s form. They simply charge you for the pleasure of reading what their experts write.
.. pedant is ok, I’m a bit of one myself .. that’s the racing paper that runs the front page Poker adverts, sends out the begging letters, that site looks like a bookies fanzine .. does it not?

Hi Douginho
Thank-you for pointing out my errors – now corrected.
SportingLive is a compliment that they deserve – instant results – brilliant.
Backing two runners is the relentless pursuit of value. Backing each way is a shortcut to the poor house. Only 7% make a long term profit.
