I take my base rating for a horse and subtract 5 points for every half a kilo over the limit or bottom weight. also include allowances.
I must STRESS that I am still in the experimental stages with this and am assuming that a rating of 600 is the same as a weight rating of 60. I have got a feeling this may be wrong but for the moment I am going with it. I thought it might be an interesting experiment if we could all do weight ratings for one race and post the results and see how close they come out to each other. Any other comments onthis welcome. I f there are enough takers I will try and organisesomething. Maybe the main race in Melbourne whatever that is.
