Experimenting with a new rating method at the moment, so I thought I'd post them here and see how they go. I must say that I don't necessarily agree with what the ratings came up with in every race, but I'll post them all the same. I'm not sure how they'll go if the track gets severely rain affected today. As I said, they're purely experimental, so be wary.

Ratings are out of 100. I generally use a cutoff point of 40 points to find the major winning chances. As a guide, horses rated 80+ are strong winning chances, horses rated 60-79 are good winning chances, horses rated 40-59 are fair winning chances and horses rated less than 40 are only outside winning chances. But you can look for value in all the rated runners if you wish. I've been looking at multiples with the top 3 or 4 rated runners for 1st and the next 3 or 4 for the placings.
