Although I still cannot see if a scratching can affect the order , but that is for another day.

Hi Star,
It depends on how they are developed, my ratings can sometimes change quite a bit after scratchings as I rate using a ranking method so if a horse is scratched the ranking order will change and this can have an affect on 1 or more of the factors used to rate. Sometimes its not just as simple as moving horses up in the ratings order with a scratching.
Cheers,
