I've found that my ratings approach performs best on the races with no age and gender restrictions, which has been something garyf has pointed out for a long time.
Hi JB
The ones I've been looking at are poor at evaluating 3YOs except where the race is set weights. Surprisingly, to me, they are v good at mares races.
