Today’s Ratings

Racing at Epsom really does make me wince. I imagine the trainers of a few horses that ran there yesterday were telling their owners, “we wont come here with your horse again”. You could see horses like UNCLE BRYN, GOOD BIRTHDAY, RIVAL, ALPHA KING and a fair few more, all …

It has been a while since I rated races at Yarmouth but in the TWOS Newsletter I’ll post one up, just to see how the figures get on. Epsom….I’ve no kind words for that track. I’ve said it a thousand times, it’s a ridiculous track and if they were looking …

I love working with Newbury….no secret being revealed there! I feel I am going to have to revisit my excluding big field handicaps as the figures for this race yesterday were superb: NEWBURY 5-05 PERCEIVED DRAW BIAS – L – H – M $* – FRONTISPIECE….+12 – 4TH 25/1 * …

It seemed like the entire neighbourhood was doing what we were doing last night and I got to bed just after 1-00am….whilst plenty around us kept going. Not much sleep this end and I’m way behind as the cogs ain’t whirring as they should! I’m sure a couple more coffee’s …

When I was producing my “scribblings” for the Beverley 4-00pm yesterday, I said this: “SCRIBBLINGS: Just seven previous running’s of this race and to date I’d suggest stats tell me we need a 5+ year old onside, trading first five on the tissue, drawn low and I’m seeing no qualifiers.” …

The BF trialling is interesting and we’ve a thread running on the Forum if you fancy keeping up to speed with that experiment. I’m going to spend more time working on racing in the first Newsletter each day, keeping waffle to a minimum….you don’t really want to know about the …

An interesting day for the Ratings, especially those Class 5 and big field races I produced figures for, for monitoring purposes: WINDSOR 3-10 (CLASS 5 – 13 RUNNERS) * – THE JEAN GENIE….+3 (OMM) – BRAINS….-8 (BF), * – STOPNSEARCH….-19 H – THORN….-27 * – DOUBLE REFLECTION….-27 (OMM) – TORBELLINO….-33 …
