Answer 1

Calculators
# Calculators help "punters," the people who bet on horse racing in the UK, determine what ways to bet on different horses. There are many different calculators from arbitrage calculators, used only by those who bet exclusively online, to ditching calculators, a way to determine a spread of betting across an entire field of horses so that no matter who wins, the payoff is the same.
Records
# Punters are statisticians. The longer they have been in the business of studying races, the more records they have and the better they are at deciphering how those statistics play out on the track. Record forms help keep the important statistics of a punter's arsenal comprehensible.
Spreadsheets
# Tracks have their own spreadsheets, various betting agencies have spreadsheets and some are available from independent sources. Spreadsheets like an "Each Way Calculator" helps assess profits and losses for bookmakers and "Beat The Book Calculator" narrows the possibilities of winners of a race to a shortlist of most likely winners. The spreadsheet forms of calculators vary in price from free to hundreds of dollars.
Racing Forms
# Racing forms are a traditional way of keeping track of daily winners of races at tracks all across a specific region as well as listings of future racing cards. Punters use these forms to develop their strategy well in advance of each race. They can judge each animal for its past performances, bloodlines, preferences and its standing against the rest of the field as it is listed. The race lineup can change up until the moment of the race and the appearance of the horses in a parade before post time may change a punter's mind, but many race choices are decided on paper long before the horses are saddled or bridled.
