Rather than just increasing the amount of filters [the usual method to improve S/R on systems posted], how about adding in 'Must be in the top 5 pre-post odds' and dropping the place % compleatly [ a 50% place S/R in the bush is meaningless in town ]? That should improve the S/R a lot.

The 56kg. rule could be another area for improvement because weight becomes increasingly important and relevent with increased distance [above 1600m. 56kg. is probably too high]. As there are no distance rules the Weight rule doesn't really relate to anything.

Barrier rule relates only to the fact that 1-9 barriers win more due to field sizes distorting the true stats because those barriers get run more than those above 9 [see barrier discussions on this forum]. That being said, it is probably a good rule because of the above and worth knowing about anyway [in case you didn't already].

Cheers.
