We all need help when doing or using something for the first time or if we lack some experience. While Inracing has been designed to be as user friendly as possible there may be some aspects of the site that are unclear to you. What is easy for one person is difficult for another and vice-versa. We have set up a alphabetical listing. If, however you do not find the help you need then send us an Email at contact@inracing.com.au and we will respond to you personally.
The Inracing site is aimed at those punters who are seeking an edge in their racing pursuits. To this end Inracing has developed products and services that do provide a clear and measurable difference in quality and content over other providers. Our formguides, books, software and subscription services have a unique edge that will ensure that you too have an edge over the TAB, bookmakers and fellow punters. It is what we are and it is what we do best. The work required to provide this edge is demanding and time consuming. Consequently, Inracing is an Ecommerce Internet site, meaning we charge a fee for the products and services we provide. The worthiness of our products and services in relation to the fees charged will naturally be determined by the consumer, we accept the responsibility and the challenge that it provides. Inracing hopes you enjoy the facilities offered, we feel confident that there is something here for every racing enthusiast. This of course does not mean we currently provide everything you need. Let us know what your requirements are, whether it be an additional piece of information you would like to see in one of our formguides or a completely new product or service. We spend a huge proportion of our time researching and developing new products and services, there is no reason why we should not give your suggestions serious consideration during that process. Just let us know by emailing us at contact@inracing.com.au. Good luck and good punting.

PicWiz is unique in the history of Australian racing as it was the first service to identify the direct link between weight, time ratings, prizemoney and tipster poll information. Old time weight handicapping failed to give credence to the importance of speed and prizemoney earnings as valid form factors. They are, and PicWiz has been able to capitlise on the importance of this information to provide an accurate and consistent pricing service for the punting enthusiast. For a full review of the PicWiz service click PicWiz off the main menu and then press the What is PicWiz? button on the PicWiz homepage.

FormBRIEF Naming Conventions
|
Inracing uses a speicific naming convention for its FormBRIEFs. This naming convention consists of a combination of date, race code, course name and race start time indicator.
An example of this format is 010718gRosed.pdf which is interpreted as follows. "01" is for year. "07" is for month.
"18" is for day. "g" means the FormBRIEF is a gallop one, a "d" would mean dog and a "t" means it is a trot meeting.
"Rose" is the course name and in this instance means Rosehill. A detailed for eans the year. The format site is aimed at those punters who are seeking an edge in their racing pursuits. To this end Inracing has developed products and services that do provide a clear and measurable difference in quality and content over other providers. Our formguides, books, software and subscription services have a unique edge that will ensure that you too have an edge over the TAB, bookmakers and fellow punters. It is what we are and it is what we do best. The work required to provide this edge is demanding and time consuming. Consequently, Inracing is an Ecommerce Internet site, meaning we charge a fee for the products and services we provide.

Adobe Acrobat has a facility which enables it to be integrated into your web browser. It is a default setting, meaning that everytime you download a .pdf file (Adobe's document extension identification) the Adobe Reader will open automatically. While this sounds like a good idea we have found that it reduces your flexability in saving and storing your document. We suggest that you de-select this option. De-select the option by doing the following:
1. Double click on the Adobe Reader icon.
2. Select File from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
3. Select Preferences.
4. Select General.
5. De-select (remove the tick) the check box marked Web Browser Integration.
6. Click the OK button to save the changes.
