Greg Polson previews Scone Tuesday August 8

Greg Polson - Tuesday August 8

The Racenet free form provides a wealth of information for punters and there is an under-estimated factor included in the guides which is an excellent starting point to assess the quality of a past race with a good example at Scone on Tuesday.

The Racenet form includes the number of winners that have come from the respective races a horse contests.

A race where a number of winners have gone on to win at future starts would suggest a better class of race compared to a race where no winners have gone on to victory.

The winners of these races where a number of winners have emanated from are generally horses worth following as they make their way through the grades.

The Kris Lees-trained Bold Chance will be chasing three wins on the trot when the lightly raced five-year-old lines up in the Buy A Turangga Yearling & Join Our Success Class 2 Handicap (1300m).

Bold Chance has only been to the races on three occasions for two victories winning both runs this campaign at Taree.

Let's have a look at the form from Bold Chance's maiden win at Taree on July 3.

The Racenet form tells us three horses have come out of the race and won.

Both the second and third horses, Sniponet and Sweatball went on to win maidens at their next start.

Bold Chance going on to win his next start in class one company was the third of the winners counted in the form guide.

How has the form held-up from the class one Bold Chance won on July 21?

Once again, the second and third horses won at their next start with Deangelo winning a benchmark 60 at Cessnock and Demoralising going on to victory in a class two handicap at Port Macquarie.

The proven form lines would suggest Bold Chance will take a power of beating at Scone on Tuesday and is the day's best bet.
