Hi Playlife,

The race rating order you have is pretty spot on. The hard part I have discovered is properly analysing how the 2yo & 3yo restricted form will equate when the 3yo's have their first starts in Open grade.

Often this restricted form is rated too highly and so I avoid races where it is too hard to gage the correct rating.

Maybe compare a few free and paid ratings to figure out where each race stands. You've probably seen the racing Australia website but just in case, look at the nominations and see the base rating each horse has. Here's a link to Ballarat tomorrow:

Racing and Sports have ratings that work well on the better class races and are free:

Best of luck Playlife!!
