Click on the introduction page at the TG website for all the information you will need as to what everything means.

Go through some of the Race of the Week pages to see how these things are interpreted.

I've been using them for a few years, and someday's I too have no idea what I'm looking at

The key to using the TG's, for myself, is using them in company with the pp's.
I see alot of 10k claimers running really good tg figs, alot of times the same as what a nice 50k claimer would be running.
However, if the 2 horses ran in the same race, we all know who would win.

Basically, It comes down to the most important thing in capping a race; CLASS.
I like seeing the patterns of each horse in the race. Which tend to jump out much more for me when using the Thoro-quick layout.
I also like the trainer stats more than the ones in the DRF.

The biggest advantage of TG's is searching for the 'hidden horse'. The runner that is just as fast on the TG's, but doesn't look good enough on the PP's.
I mainly buy the TG when Im stuck on a race of evenly matched horses, that you know if you can solve the puzzle you will be rewarded.
