What do TRFers think of Timeform’s New Site?

Anyone else a subscriber?
What do you think of it?

Am a Race Passes subscriber and the difference is going to take some getting used to!

Value Is Everything

I was struggling to find out when Racehorses of was going to be published on the old site. Now I see it is out on 29th March which is very frustrating as it means I can’t it over to Dubai for the World Cup meeting.

That seems quite late Adrian – I was reading the other day of Phil Bull’s struggles to get it done anywhere near time, but I’d have thought a week or two

before

the season start would be the premium release time, for users if not the marketeers at any rate.

I’m a race pass subscriber and they actually gave me a sneak preview a few days ago and i was surprised that there was no form facility as with the original site and a few other things i noticed needed attention.

They said they were gathering all the feedback and will attend to any issues.

Needless to say I was surprised a few days later they went live without sorting these things out!!

On a positive note it’s good to see a refresh.

I think once they sort out these issues and re-introduce previous and next navigation in the race reports it will be a marked improvement, i certainly like the new flags like trainer form etc;

It’s also good to see the racecard comments under each runner on the main race screen rather than just the horse’s name and rating.

Yes Baynet, once I get used to it should be better than the old site.

Value Is Everything

What I would like to see is more talk about actions (round or points toe etc) in the write ups. Although actions don’t always prove significant, the liklihood of a horse going on the ground improves if the action suits.
