Today the $1 million Group 1 Railway Stakes (1600m) takes place at Ascot Racecourse presenting punters with one of the best betting opportunities of the summer racing season and all savvy bettors will turn to the 2010 Railway Stakes Form Guide for the inside info on what horses to back.
Picking the Railway Stakes winner is not as easy as finding a horse with a nice name or appealing jockey silks!
When it comes to placing a well-informed wager with the best chance of giving you a juicy winning payout, the form guide has all the details you need to assess the chances of each horse.
In the Railway Stakes form guide you will find all the basic details of the race and the runners in the field including their race number, trainers, jockeys and their starting barriers.
The Railway Stakes barrier draw is especially important as only two barriers have produced more than one winner in the past 11 years, gates eight and eleven so check the form of the runners drawn in these barriers today.
After the basic race and field details, the form guide then goes on to list the weight each horse has been allocated to carry, their age, total prize money earned and career statistics.
A good Railway Stakes tip when looking at the field and form is to check the odds on four-year-olds, who have an imposing record in the race as do geldings.
There are six four-year-olds in the 2010 Railway Stakes field this year including second favourite Trusting and R.J. Peters Stakes winner God Has Spoken, both a good chance to cause an upset over the six-year-old favourite Colour Correct.
Below the Races.com.au team have sourced and published a detailed 2010 Railway Stakes Form Guide for your information.
Remember, once you have studied the form and picked your selections, the next tip is to get the best possible price on your bet so you win more when successful!
