Hi. Does anyone know of a trustworthy source of information on individual horses running styles? Front runners, hold up horses etc. TIA

It's a very interesting subject and one I follow closely. I'm not aware of any resources available. My knowledge and experience of race reading comes from on site at the racecourse. I do a bit of form work the night before, but very little. May I suggest you consider looking at live streams, or replays. I deliberately mute all race callers / commentators, and have a good knowledge of camera angle bias which helps form an opinion.

https://www.betfairtradingblog.com/in-p ... cing-pace/ might be of interest to you.

It's not my field but pacecards.com used to get a few mentions.

Racing post, sporting life. Don't need to pay for anything, you get comments for lifetime form. Gives the basics but not always accurate, watching replays is time consuming but paints a better picture as them comments are only really a few sentences max.

attheraces is often a fair starting point. (Free) Higher the pace score the better.
