What is the best horse racing form guide? ›

If you are serious about your form study then you can't go past The Sportsman, which is widely considered to be Australian's best form guide. The Sportsman is a national publication produced twice weekly, with extra issues produced during all major carnivals. It is around the same size as the Melbourne Herald Sun.

Generally speaking, a basic form guide will have trainer, jockey, barrier draw and weight details for each horse. Other information might include a horse's total career starts, including wins & places and prize money earned, along with their most recent three starts.
