Do you mean that you add up all the different weights of the horses in a handicap race and then divide by the number of horses?

Also is that before or after scratchings?

Thanks

Hi Peter,

CP is correct, Official Handicap, you can find them on this web site, https://www.racingaustralia.horse/home.aspx

i have not tried:
learnpython.org,
freecodecamp.org
i might have used:
pythonguides.com
The best books are from O'Reilly
the cookbooks are good as is Python in a nutshell
Zed Shaw Learn Python The Hard Way third ed gives you a good intro with exercises

Chrome Prince,
Yes, that makes sense.

Unstable,
Thanks for the reply and explanation. I like your idea to determine the strength/quality of the race

Here is a Good example of Race Strength, Sat 9/4/2022, Werribee R4

I use a gap of 4. If the average hcp in a BM58 is 54, then I back all horses that are 4+ above the Average up to 4 horses.

Code:

TRACK	            RN	TN	FORM	HORSE	        HCP	RESULT	WIN	PLC
WERRIBEE	4	1	8375	Larrikin	58	2ND		1.25
WERRIBEE	4	2	38x7	Latin Beat IRE	58	WON	35.4	5.9
WERRIBEE	4	3	40x4	Rivivy Kenz	57			
WERRIBEE	4	4	4532	Langworthy NZ	56	3RD		1.61
WERRIBEE	4	5	32x0	Hesontherun	55			
WERRIBEE	4	6	x124	Aeroette NZ	58	4TH		
WERRIBEE	4	7	2547	Big Darryl	54			
WERRIBEE	4	9	x707	Montaser NZ	50			
WERRIBEE	4	11	3769	Time Of Glory	40			22.9
				  AVERAGE	        54

Tab number 1,2 and 6 are 4 above average, I would Dutch those 3 horses.
