As you can see, it was a good month for the top raters, especially this past week!!! A profit of 11% is quite promising considering I'm only using Unitab divs for the results. Not so good for the 2nd raters though as you can see.

There were 332 races where there was a clear cut top 2 (no equal 2nd raters), and in 251 of those races (76%), at least one of those top 2 finished 1st or 2nd.

Quite amazed at how well the top raters have been going the past week or so. I'm sure the bubble will have to burst in February.
