lol. Formgrids is a miracle worker now.

Fantastic news... All courses?

Formgrids and Gold Circle are working on a tracker system that will enable Sectional Timing on all GC races and will feature the same as Singapore racing with the horses saddle cloth numbers appearing on the bottom of the screen...Dave will give us a full update shortly

Sectional Timing will no doubt give one a better idea as to the horse's true ability and would stand to reason that the turnovers would grow..

Considering that a very similar product is used at the Olympics and most other track events it would be fair to say that the timing would be extremely accurate and will give exact Running Order,Current speed,Margin between horses,Sectional time,Average speed,Distance covered, Cumulative time Acceleration and Distance remaining..
