    As the all-weather season has started I thought I would share my thoughts about the going etc, the official going given out most days is usually nowhere near what the actual going was, what you thought might have been a fast time was actually just average.

    The going allowance table I work to, was worked out from analysing thousands of races along with the class pars that I use.

    AW going allowance table:
    Fast +0.50s/f
    Stand/Fast +0.18s/f to +0.40s/f
    Standard -0.15s/f to +0.15s/f
    Stand/Slow -0.48s/f to -0.18s/f
    Slow -0.70s/f to -0.50s/f

    My class pars:
    G1-120
    G2-113
    G3-109
    LST-104
    C2-92
    C3-86
    C4-77
    C5-68
    C6-58
    C7-49

    Two meetings to look at on the 14/11/12.

    The going at Kempton I found was riding standard to fast at +0.25s/f per furlong and the official going was given as standard, at Southwell the official going was given as standard and I had the going at +0.30s/f per furlong which is standard to fast.

    The fast going at Southwell explains how Outpost an 80 rated horse dipped under the standard time for the 6f trip by -0.51s.

    Kempton speed figures:(No WFA)

    Top ten Speed figures on the day:
    Kempton (AW) 14-Nov-12 Ubetterbegood (ARG) 25/1 93 (Class 3)
    Kempton (AW) 14-Nov-12 Ihtifal 11/8F 92 (Class 3)
    Kempton (AW) 14-Nov-12 Ajjaadd (USA) 14/1 92 (Class 3)

    Southwell (AW) 14-Nov-12 Outpost (IRE) 6/1 87 (Class 4)

    Kempton (AW) 14-Nov-12 Whozthecat (IRE) 16/1 71 (Class 3)

    The best individual performances on the day were Brandywell Boy +10, Itum +9 (4.55 Kempton) and Outpost +7, Take Cover +7 (3.20 Southwell).

    To explain the Individual performances, for example I consider Brandywell Boy ran 10lbs better than his official mark 50 hence the speed figure of 60 8) .

    I make my own speed ratings, and agree the official going bears very little resemblance to the actual going that I find after racing has finished when I work out my going correction for my ratings.

    Although this is not ideal I haven’t found a great deal of difference in my Speed Ratings due to the going. I seem to find that a horse running a particular rating on Standard going runs a very similar rating on Fast or Slow going.

    Just as well, as there is no way of knowing beforehand what the actual going is.

    On Friday and Saturday this week, I sent off 2 emails to

    The Racing Post

    informing them they used the wrong standard times again for the

    Tapeta

    races at

    Meydan

    , they used their standard times for the Turf instead, at last I see that they have finally corrected this.

    It is an easy mistake to make as Turf and Tapeta begin with the same letter "T" :shock:

    Seeking Magic

    he set up the winner

    Noverre To Go

    to dip under the standard by

    -0.53s

    in this (class 4) contest.

    When I worked out the going allowance at 0.00s/f per furlong and 9st for

    Noverre To Go

    , he had achieved a speed figure of

    114

    which would be a (Group 2) par time, hence my adjusted going allowance of

    +0.33s/f

    .

    Seeking Magic

    should be nailed on to win next time out under a more conservative ride.

    The only performance of note was

    Haftohaf +8

    who is sure to win again in better company, he bettered the (class 5) par by

    7lbs

    .

    If you read the form on the

    Racing Post’s

    website, their reporter states that

    Haftohaf’s

    race was

    1 second slower

    than the other division, shouldn’t he have said

    1 Second faster

    :shock:

    After yesterdays meeting at Wolverhampton, I expect this is the last time we will see racing on Wolverhampton’s polytrack due to the kickback.

    The hobbits at the BHA, sorry I mean elf and safety, cannot allow racing to continue on this surface anymore :shock:

    For some time now, the polytrack has been riding on the fast side of standard, during the summer months it was riding around

    +0.30s/f

    per furlong (standard to fast).

    AW going allowance table:

    Fast +0.50s/f
    Stand/Fast +0.18s/f to +0.40s/f
    Standard -0.15s/f to +0.15s/f
    Stand/Slow -0.48s/f to -0.18s/f
    Slow -0.70s/f to -0.50s/f

    There is no doubt in my mind that the structure of the polytrack has broken down and I expect there to be an announcement from the BHA to this fact :roll:

    AW going allowance for Wolverhampton 01/12/12

    A special mention goes to

    Chookie Hamilton

    who is in the form of his life and sure to win again and to

    Thecornishcockney

    who since I pointed this horse out has won at 15/8 and 7/2, even with the handicapper putting him up

    11lbs

    didn’t stop him winning 8)

    I see that both horses are entered in again today in the 3.40 Wolverhampton :shock:
