Specifically England, Hong Kong and Japan? I've been doing pretty well handicapping US racing, and would like to branch out, but having trouble finding much information. I'm looking for data services along the lines of Equibase/Trackmaster that provide speed and class figures, along with regular past performances. Failing that, plain old past performances would be a help. TIA

If you try to handicap UK or jra races like us races you'll be living in a homeless shelter sooner rather then later


There are drastic differences



In the UK the best horse wins there arebt many they only race the best the fields are small the best horse wins



In Australia they done care about losing and race horses into shape a horse may be 20 to one one race and run like it and a week later VW 5 to 2 and win going away



American racing is obsessed with speed where as everyone else isn't. They might run 2 furlongs or 400 meters in an avg UK race


I bet Australia racing a lot if u follow it u can adjust and make money

Also pedigrees take some time to adjust to. Sunday silence won two thirds of the triple crown and is the best turf sire in Japanese racing history including siring a turf triple crown winner and world record holder for a two mile race in deep impact. More thAN ready in America is known for 2 year old dirt runners in Australia he sires everything from sprinters to classic horses. Sire of more joyous
