Michael,

After looking at the Unitab ratings for a while, I think I've worked out something. I think quite a large part of the horse's rating is actually based on it's best run, not it's most recent run. In other words, a horse may have had a really top rating run three or four starts ago and done very little since, but they still end up top rated. As a result, you'll often see the same horses on top of the ratings week after week, based on one great performance in their previous form. You would think that might be a flawed method, but it does often result in good priced winners.
