Here are some stats taken from hundreds of races across 3 states, excluding hurdles and WFA races. Sat Metro only

52-58.5kgs = 91% of winners
59kg+ = 5% of winners
Less than 52kgs = 4% of winners

In regards to the winners which carried 59kgs or more, all but one was ranked 1st by $$$ per race which contradicts the following statement made earlier:

"You assume that the amount of prizemoney a horse has won directly links to the ability of a horse to carry weight. No relationship whatsoever!" (Equine Investor)

In future please stick to facts, not opinions, not here say or myths.

Words without facts to back them up are hollow and almost meaningless.


WRONG AGAIN!

Of course the horse with the top $$$ carried the top weight, I think everyone accepts that the topweight is topweight because the handicapper has assessed it to be.

Where you are wrong is relating that to a horse's ABILITY to carry that weight.
Both mutually exclusive equations. Obviously with only 5% of winners you just proved my statement correct -thankyou.

FACT:
You don't provide statistics whatsoever to say how MANY horses carried over 59kgs, if you are going to be picky on others I think you should be consistant yourself.
