My database is no different from any other, we all get the same basic data, although some suppliers give you additional info.
I am working in IT so I do write my own software, that helps I suppose.
Here is a sample file in (Excel so that anyone can see it), to show you what I mean by coming down in class.
If you scroll to the right to the field "Raceclasspoints" you can see that the horse always did better when down in class from the previous race, BUT much better when significantly down! And it paid handsomely! Of course other people cottoned on and the last time they backed it accordingly.
Naturally this down in class business is just part of a rating, a donkey will not do well, no matter how far down in class it goes.
The class rating of a race is my own, anyone can do it, and as long it is consistent doesn't matter what points you give them.
