Inline Form Lines: View Race History Without Leaving the Racecard
RaceMetrics' Inline Form Lines feature lets you expand a horse's recent race history instantly on any racecard view. Instead of navigating away, you click to reveal form data directly below the horse row—then click again to collapse it. This speeds up form analysis during card building.
How to Use It on Ratings and At-a-Glance
On the Ratings or At-a-Glance tabs, click any horse row to expand the last 6 form lines. The first six runs appear by default for a quick overview. If you need more history, click "Show all X form lines" to view the complete record. Click the same row again to collapse—it works whether you're viewing 6 or all lines. Opening a different horse automatically closes any previously expanded row.
Form Expert: Filter by Condition
The Form Expert tab works differently. Each column displays breakdown stats (Runs / Wins / Win%). Click any stat cell to expand only the form lines that match that category. For example, click a going stat to see races run on that going range only, or click a course cell to isolate races at today's track. The form lines shown are server-filtered to match your selection exactly, and a header confirms the filter applied (e.g. "3 runs — Good To Soft to Heavy").
Spot Relevant Form at a Glance
Form lines use colour-coding to highlight data matching today's race conditions in green. The course name turns green if the horse has run at today's track. Class, going, and distance cells highlight in green when they match today's conditions. This visual system lets you instantly identify races run under similar conditions—a faster way to assess form relevance without scanning raw numbers.
Works Across All Racecard Views
Inline Form Lines is available on all three racecard tabs: Ratings, At-a-Glance, and Form Expert. The feature respects any active filters you've already applied (Going, Class, Distance, Field, Race Type, Handicap, Period), so your filtered view remains consistent as you explore individual horses.
