About ZANS Racing
ZANS Racing is a small racing publisher in Leicester. We turn years of UK and Irish race results into clear course guides, so you can see how a course really rides before you go racing or study a card.
Every figure comes from our own analysis of race results, and every rating in the guides is our own ZANS rating.
Questions
What do I get?
A PDF guide in a colour version and a print-friendly version. You download it from Etsy straight after you buy.
Does a guide tell me what to back?
No. It explains the course, the draw, the going and the patterns in past races. It does not pick horses or promise returns.
Which edition should I choose?
Beginner if you are new to racing, Advanced if you know the basics, Pro if you want every number and how it was tested.
Can I read it on my phone?
Yes. The PDF opens on any phone, tablet or computer, and you can print it.
