Market Form

[Bravestone]

Morning all! Hope we are well. Just in search to see if any of the pro's on here have come across Market Form yet?

Obviously I won't post where as I don't want to break any rules but a genuine discussion on my creation of a new form book in horse racing would really help!

Currently have stacks and stacks of data over 100k Market Form rows including how horses behaved in the market in the 2025 Cheltenham Festival. Could be very interesting use going forward.

For example, when a horse is drifting at the top of the market from say the William Haggas yard, everyone is guessing to what it has typically meant. Simple things like that have never been recorded and/or available to the public.
