trading horse prices in-play

[eltel]

Quite a broad question, the answers may well be subjective - which are the best horse races to trade in-play?
Short races 5f, 6f, 7f seem to me too fast to get an angle.
Nat hunt and longer races allow more time to react to changes, but some rubbish races.
So. Is it the case that one should read the form for each race and make a decision from that info?
Any comments welcome.

From a manual trading perspective:

Before you put any money into trading a horse race in play, you need to know:

1) As much as possible about each horse in the race you are going to trade
2) How the race is likely to be run
3) What your plan is based on the above
4) What delay are you working with i.e. Racing TV track or Sky Racing? Other market participants i.e. drone player, GPS users, tracksiders etc
5)The amount you are prepared to risk and what is the worst case scenario

Hope that helps

My experience is that 7f is challenging, but possible, but 5f and 6f not really, mainly because it's impossible to get out. I've had a few high risk, high reward ideas, but haven't been brave enough to try them.
