Well, it's just that we came up with this idea at short notice, and not everyone may be ready, especially with the pricing aspect of it. I think one person didn't post any prices at all.

my ideas are based on somthing i read 15 years ago they are not based on common ratings but they are based on common form for example a horse has run leass than 6 lengths in it's last 3 starts it gets a value the horse has a particular strike rate it gets another value....so my ratings are kinda based on a lot of other peoples but they would have to be...it is no good me having ratings saying i will give 10 points to a horse that ran 20 lengths last 3 that makes no sense so if you base your rating on form and other things you are going to have similar horse in your list...if you look at our list we all have similar horses some are different but not a great deal....but the ratings are different aren't they some are weight based some are speed based and some are form based....in reality no matter what ratings you use if they are sound then you will have a better chance to get the winners.

winners yes price?????

yes i understand getting price...problem is a you can't dictate what the price is that you get for a winner....i admit i look at certain types of races as you would know if you check out my document this thread it lists all my selections for tomorrow...i gues tha mian thing is to steer clear o lower priced horses even if they are your top rank...i have a $4 min for price that i will except even thought my SR will be lower doing this it is enough to make money...backing short priced winners is a quick way to the poor house.

Under the Bridge: $5.10
Close Encounter: $6.00
