There are two ways to assess this Testarossa.

Use the winning times to assess the class of the wins.

E.G. a 1:59.9 a Bendigo is better than a 2:03.4 at Moonee Valley (providing both runs were equal - not trapped wide, hampered etc.)

To get this information you can look at this formguide -

Look at the comments in running as an aid.

I would also look at the prizemoney of the race as a guide.

A horse that led all the way, won by 5 metres and ran 2:00.0 is not as good as a horse that was three wide for the last half and won by a nose recording a time of 2:01.00.

But a lot of it is assessment on the merit of the run and quality of the opposition.

I would thoroughly recommend watching the races if you can and keeping your own black book of horses that had no luck or were trapped wide etc.

These are the value horses that often roll those odds on pops next start.
