O'k crash, best punter on earth. You are handicapping a welter.
Horse A last start won a welter.
Horse B last start won a metro class 6.
Horse C won a race restricted to horse not having 3 metro wins in the last year.
Horse D won an open race.
Leave all other factors out. Do you go D, A, C, B. Not really worried about how easy welters are to handicap. Just what does a win in a welter indicate about the class of a horse. The best I can place it as is just beneath an open race.
