For older past form (until 2024), we have some human-annotated video form comments. By enabling this setting, you'll force the Form King generated comment to be shown in preference to any manual video comments. Note - if we do not have a human video comment, we will always include the FK comment.

Disable this setting if you don't want the S-8, 8-4, 4-F sectional breakdown in the Form King generated past run comments.

If you've enabled the sectional breakdown in past run comments, then you can choose between various benchmarks for the S-8/8-4/4-F breakdown. Field Average will show you how the runner went against the average of that race field in each section. All Average is a fixed class par of 90 on the FK rating scale, which is similar to a Midweek BM72. Class par is specific to the field strength of the past run.

You can enable this setting to include your personal meeting comment in all past run cards.

You can enable this setting to include your personal race comment in all past run cards.

You can enable this setting to include your personal runner comment in all past run cards.

This is a blanket setting for turning on and off the Next To Go top bar. If disabled, it will never show. If enabled, it will show as long as the time until the next race is less than the configured value below for "Max Hours Until Next Race".

A secondary setting to control whether to show the Next To Go bar. Default is 3 hours, which means if there's not an upcoming race within 3 hours from the current time, it will not show, despite being enabled.

A number in minutes (between 1 and 15) that dictates how often we clean out tiles for races that have been run more than 5 mins ago. Default is 3 minutes.

The maximum number of tiles to include in the carousel, which can be between 3 and 20.

A multiple select of states to include races from. If you select All States, we'll include races from wherever we have them.

A multiple select of meeting grades to include races from. If you select All Grades, we'll include races from all types of meetings.

You can set a default tab to be the active view when any form guide is loaded. The system default is the form table view.

You can hide live odds when the form guide loads. This will suppress any references to the live market odds, which can help people who wish to avoid being biased by the market's opinion, prior to forming their own.

On the Class tab of the form guide, you can choose to show the new full class table by default, instead of the old "last 10 runs" table. The new table has 1 row per past run, and allows for a deep dive into the form. It also filters with the graphs above. The older table shows the last 10 start weight-adjusted ratings. Regardless of your default view, you can switch between them easily.

In the Performance tab, the FK Track Speed filter can either group into categories like Fast, Good, Dead, Slow, Heavy, or it can be expanded to individual grades, like Good 3, Dead 4. The system default is to group them.

In the Performance tab, you can opt in to having a Date Range Filter, which will be shown below the worm graphs and Distance Filter.

The Performance tab of the form guide has access to the last 12 runs for each horse. You can set a max number to show by default (between 1 and 12), and then this can be modified from a text field above the table itself. Currently, only the full past form table supports this setting.

The Jockey/Trainer tab of the form guide will pull data for all jockeys and trainers in today's race. Historically, we asked for all data but due to load time and performance constraints, we made the new default 1 Year of data. You can select 1 or 3 years, or go back to all data. Beware that selecting All Time will most likely result in at least 10 second load times. Also, beware that in non-final fields mode, we will force it to 1 Year, due to the large number of trainers nominating horses.

You can set a default speedmap grid. The system default is 4 rows, 12 columns. Allowed values are: Rows (3 to 8), Columns: (8-12).

By default, dragging and dropping tiles on the grid will auto save your map to the database. You can disable this if you only want to save manually by clicking the save button.

When calculating the speedmap progress bars, we include PIR, lengths from leader and real speed data from the last 8 runs by default. You can change that number to anything between 1 and 12.

The system default is to move the rail between the top and the bottom of the grid when dealing with Anti-Clockwise (rail top) and Clockwise (rail bottom) racing direction. Enable this flag to force the rail to the bottom of the speedmap and the grid at all times. When this is enabled, we will lay out the grid and the progress bars in opposite directions, since the rail is not changing.

In order to provide you with an automatic rated price for all runners, the computer must select a past run, or have a default rating number as a starting point (a base rating). Users can then make adjustments to the base in the Worksheet. We offer the ability to average the best X run(s) from the last Y start(s). This should provide quite a bit of flexibility. System default is to take the average of the best 2 runs from the last 3 starts.

When live market odds are available and this flag is enabled, the Worksheet will create a rating for first starters that is derived from the current price (adjusted to 100%) and the FK likely winning standard. Enabling this flag overrides the "First Starter Default Ratings" setting.

You can set a default unit for your adjustments. This unit will be applied for all adjustments you make, whether they be for speedmap, jockey, improvement etc. We'll use this unit in conjunction with your preferred adjustment amount (default 0.5) each time you click to make a ratings point adjustment.

You can set the default adjustment amount, as well as the unit. The system default 0.5, which would apply and 0.5 amount of the unit as an adjustment, each time click to make an adjustment. If you had "LENGTHS" selected as your adjustment unit, we would work out what 1 full length is in rating points, and then apply 0.5 of that full length as the adjustment. You can set any value between 0 and 1 for the adjustment amount.

In order to provide recommended staking using a modified, fractional Kelly criterion, we need to define the fraction of the full Kelly strength to use. In horse racing, it is not recommended to use "full Kelly", given the random nature of race outcomes and likelihood of bad runs leading to bankruptcy under such extreme staking. The system default is 0.125, which is 1/8 Kelly. Beware that as you increase this value closer to 1 (full Kelly), you're increasing the portion of your bank that the computer will emplore you to stake in any race, when you have a perceived edge.

Historically, the Worksheet always re-sorted by rating/price as adjustments were made (Auto). We now offer a fixed table sort by TAB/Saddlecloth number, or barrier. You can also manually sort by many of the columns by clicking the column header.

You can give a custom name to the ADJ-1 adjustment column (Max 7 characters). You can also assign an increment and unit for each adjustment click (left and right mouse clicks). The default increment is 0.1 Rating Points.

You can give a custom name to the ADJ-2 adjustment column (Max 7 characters). You can also assign an increment and unit for each adjustment click (left and right mouse clicks). The default increment is 0.1 Rating Points.

You can give a custom name to the ADJ-3 adjustment column (Max 7 characters). You can also assign an increment and unit for each adjustment click (left and right mouse clicks). The default increment is 0.1 Rating Points.

You can give a custom name to the ADJ-4 adjustment column (Max 7 characters). You can also assign an increment and unit for each adjustment click (left and right mouse clicks). The default increment is 0.1 Rating Points.

You can give a custom name to the ADJ-5 adjustment column (Max 7 characters). You can also assign an increment and unit for each adjustment click (left and right mouse clicks). The default increment is 0.1 Rating Points.

Once you've logged in, Form King will keep your session active until you log out. We have a heartbeat that keeps your session alive on an hourly basis. The information below is for troubleshooting purposes only and can be quoted to the FK support team, should you have any issues with your active session. Alternatively, logging out and back in should fix any issues that may arise from a session going stale.
