If you have the time DRF Formulator is easily the best as you can get so much information you can spend hours on a race.

For me I use Bris as I have a life outside of horse racing (unfortunatly) and get what I need in a quicker way...the best is to combine capping with watching past races as you find questions about trips as you read.

I prefer Bris not necessarily because they are better than the Beyers but mainly because they don't drive the lines like the DRF ones do. When I cap a race with the Form I quite often come out with the horses in the exact same order as the odds. When I cap using Brisnet I often will find 20/1 shots come out as my second or third choice and have had many of them come through for me. So even if the DRF may be accurate more often I find I can make more money using Brisnet since it finds me the occassional longshot that may not show up on the Beyers.

Thumbs up

I'm a big fan of BRIS ultimates, and have been using them for years. After years with them, I just can't cap many races without those pace figures. The race summary on the ultimates is a great quick tool, and the track profile information is fantastic after the first couple of weeks of any meet.
