Sportz - not to discredit, b/c ratings are a hard business to perfect, but a word of advice: perfect the method of rating prior to perfecting the method of punting.
There are some errors, unfortunately. Examples -
Lad of the Manor (118) outrates Lotteria (114).
Lad of the Manor outrates Spark of Life (116) and Takeover Target (116) (two best sprinters in country)
Xcellent (117) outrates those sprinters and Lotteria.
Leica Falcon rates the same as TTarget and SOfLife????????
Desert War only rates 112.
Zipping rates 114.
Sur Dex (113) outrates Desert War (112)
Railings (115) rates inferior to Leica Falcon (116) even though Railings is a multiple G1 winner, Leica Falcon's best win a G3, the time they met Railings beat Leica Falcon, carrying more weight. That one needs serious examination.
As I said - not trying to discredit, but work these out properly, or else like the house built on bad foundations, all else will fail.
Good luck, it's a long journey.
