I know of many time raters that do well, especially using 200m sectionals of a race, measuring fastest time and acceleration.
I honestly think it's more suited to dirt tracks in the usa.
Turf courses, the pace is different and horses really aren't extended til much later.
But if you found an edge, then you may be looking at times differently to traditional methods.
I do know that when Beyer came here, he couldn't get his successful time ratings strategy to work here.
