No. The scores are only worked out on the order you rate the horses, not their prices. The basic reason that we get everyone to post prices for their ratings is so that everyone can make a good comparison between different people's ratings. You see, some people work out their ratings in kgs, some in lengths, some in points, so doing it this way is simply the best way of letting people make a comparison between the various sets of ratings. Looks better too.  |
