Most ratings are good and cover most of the basic factors. These factors are considered by most these days under some form analysis. You take any ratings on the market place and your looking at around 25-30% on the top selection for a loss around 10 - 20% long-term.

Consider the top 5 and you hit around 70 to 80% of the winners. I find this all to common knowledge these days and all punters following this path. Why not it can narrow a field of contenders down to 4 to 5.

The key then is how to identify the best of the best from the final horses remaining.

I think you need to source out hidden factors that are not considered. This maybe be around Class, fitness and speed.

I think if you are trying to consistently find winners around the $3.00 mark you won't hold up a long-term profit.

Probably need to customise the ratings around particular circumstances like Flemingtion straight is a lot different to comparing races around MV. Some horses like clockwise and not anti-clockwise. Might come down to rail position.

I'm finding more and more too often Media selections are overbet and also horses are judged from there last run.

Good luck.
