Here are my figures for the Perth Cup, using Betchoice fixed odds as at Thursday midday. (First figure is points, second figure is points/10*price to arrive at Rating):
Newport 10.66, 10.6
Largo Lad 11, 13.2
Lords Ransom 8.66, 2.6
Star Encounter 9.5, 17.1
Gondorff 7, 4.1
Right Fong 2, 1.6
Friars Touch 0.33, 2.7
Geyser Peak 1, 4.1
Hadabeclorka 6.5, 39.7
Lambton Castle 2, 12.2
Ma Chienne 5.5, 4.4
Markus Maximus 11, 14.3
New Spice 4, 7.6
Sentenza 1, 5.1
Almohad 1, 1.5
Truckin Tobie 0.5, 3
Esroh 3, 30.3
Neige 1, 20.1The ratings for the emergencies are probably inflated by the risk that they will not get a start, so the Rating should be re calculated on the final field. However, on what we have, Hadabeclorka is top value, followed by Esroh, then Neige, then Markus Maximus and Largo Lad. Betting strategies on final field?? Back the top three Raters for a win and place? Combine in duets?
