But I would like to know fromm the Xptdriver,what the difference in ratings means.
That is,does a 100 rating mean itis a kilo better off than a 99 rating?
That sort of thing.
And I also am grateful that you are back posting,Xptdriver.
I have read some of your stuff in searches,and indeed you are a GREAT contributor as far as useful knowledge is concerned.



Gday moeee,

Sorry for the tardiness replying, gotta work a real job.

to answer your question about what the number actually means.. Nothing really.. It is a conversion number from a much greater number, to make the ratings more easily understandable. With the type of ratings I posted I decided to use the ratings figure instead of the price. ( I always used to post a rating expressed as a price- set at about 116%, to represent the TAB take out). the 100 was the top score possible, in most races that is acheived, some it isn't. But sadly those ratings were not as good as I would like so I will keep on fiddling.. a few favs and a decent priced winner, I havent checked but they may have shown a small profit, depending on where you were betting.

Thanks for the kind remarks about some past articles, not sure that everyone would agree tho
