Hi KV,
Being a magpie I knew I had it tucked away someplace, well here it is.
It should be self explanatory, the name of the speadsheet tells it all.
FirstLetter.xls is where the horse's name begins with the corresponding letter, SecLetter.xls where the second letter in the name corresponds with the letter in the line etc.
I can't remember why I done it (somebody must have asked for it) but it proves one point, if any, mechanical systems can work if you stick to them long enough, but first you must test them (retrofit??)
There is about four years of data involved, so it should be OK.
I personally could not be bothered with it because my rating works well enough, if not for the jocks and trainers I would be a wealthy man.
