I recall a random Saturday looking at the ratings for M, S, B and one top rated horse won. The thread is on here somewhere. I do thank you for the3 offer of proof but I believe you. All I would do is look for some more holes and it appears that we're now looking at a "poll", similar to a tipsters poll. It just gets better. If ratings worked they would show a half decent profit by simply backing the top rated horse .... the only way to win from ratings is to sell them.
