Author Topic: Class Ratings Reference (Read 4917 times)

Will be posting tables of different class Ratings so you can see the difference and strength between different races.
They will be in table format and easy to read.

As with everything, a rating based system built using your own ratings is only as good as your last winner and it is very easy to still miss the winner/placegetters even when the ratings are correct.

Such is modern racing.

Therefore ratings can only be used as a guide in assessing race form and contribute perhaps one fifth of the total picture. One of the major strengths of ratings is that the figures when done well can be considered to be part of the "facts" for a race, similar to other facts like weight carried, barrier draw and so on.
The ratings in the new ratings based system are based from the top down, that is the horse rating 68 in a 68 event will carry the top weight and weights will decrease by half a kilogram for each rating point decrease. Don Scott style ratings used by most are based on a base rating with the weight added to the base rating, bottom up, if you like.

As a result, the ratings can act as a strong pointer to the likely winner.

Intermediate, Novice, Welter? Sounds like the 70's and 80's.

Where are you getting these from Stormy?

Are these related to Don Scott's race ratings? I'm too busy at present to put together my base rating system but take them from racing and sports. Are these similar?

Rationale behind the Kingston Town Stakes being rated 1kg higher than Cox Plate?

Hi Stormy,
At the risk of being accused of sexual harassment, or even being biased towards a particular gender, if you are female, I'd kiss you.
I have been searching for a breakdown of the Australian Racing Class Ladder - in the manner that you have outlined.
See my posts under the INTERNATIONAL RACING section.
Thank you.
This is fantastic stuff.
If you have this kind of breakdowns for NZ, Japan, HK, Singapore and Korea, please upload it or guide me to where I am likely to find this information, on the internet.
I bet primarily in the US - and while we don't have an exact European type rating system, (with Official Handicapper / Benchmark type ratings), our racing class structure usually helps us to make, fairly, easy distinctions.
In the US, our weights are usually between 118 Lbs to 126Lbs. We rarely see anything over 126 and we don't rely on an official handicapper to rate our horses.
I am not interested in the ratings but I like the outline of the different divisions - that helps me to put things in perspective.
Anywho, gotta run. Will be looking at this again.

If you bet US races, I have uploaded the US style Daily Racing Form (DRF) Past Performances (PP's) for races 5 thru 10 at Santa Anita this Afternoon.
I like a longshot called DESERT FOX in the 6th. First time starter has good workouts (barrier trials), get Lasix (Legal Diuretic in the US) and picks up an Apprentice for the debut.
An exacta/Trifecta box with KOPITAR (#7) and OPTIMUM (#5) is what I will play.
Thank you

"I'd kiss you"

Seems you might be mistaking our "Stormy" with Stormy Daniels.

Alas Stormy hasn't appeared here for some time.

Northerlywins · « 2018-Oct-21, 11:11 AM **Reply #14** »

I just use official handicapper ratings

How do you come up with weight advantage/disadvantage in bench-mark races which also use official handicapper ratings . .

I am still a learner (a very slow one) in this area

All help appreciated
