About this listen
James Dooley and Joe Norris break down one of the most overlooked angles in horse racing form analysis because punters often miss how wind surgery impacts performance and value. They explain what WS1 and WS2 really mean, why some trainers target specific races after a procedure, and how market behaviour can distort prices when bettors latch onto the “second-run bounce”.
Joe shares data-driven insights on why the second run after wind surgery often shows the biggest improvement, especially in National Hunt racing where stamina exposes breathing issues more clearly. James counters with his preference for backing horses on their first run back when the market underestimates the potential uplift because value is created when others ignore the angle.
The pair explore how to avoid overbet favourites, when longshots become mispriced, and why understanding different types of wind operations helps punters judge real improvement rather than hype. The conversation blends practical betting strategy with no-nonsense reasoning because listeners want an honest guide to using wind-op information as an edge.
A sharp, transparent episode for punters who want smarter ways to read the racecard and spot value that others miss.
