    if i add the average bhb rating of a race with the average reverse vdw rating do people think that this will be good enough rating or should i use top bhb rating or top bhb rating at 10st on the flat along with reverse vdw[its not so simple any more] looking to add points for competitivness,reverse vdw averaged out looks to be a good rough indication of what was in the race but does,nt tell you enough i.e class

    sorry pompete but it looks more like a class rating rather than a  competitivness rating looking for a rating that will tell me what kind of form the horses in the race are in were there a lot of winners in the race rated two races using reverse vdw ratings spring cup average rating 21 winter derby rating 18 spring cup slightly more competitive

    would like to use simple vdw ratings but am changing to racform for the flat because it gives you better trainer track and jockey stats would like to rate all races past and future for competitivness if a horse is coming down in money and competitivness , class and class of track good bet perhaps ?

    no i would like to rate the race  not the horses i know i will have to rate the horses first but i would like a rating as to how competitive each race is in the past and in the future a race full of winners should be more competitive than a race full of unplaced animals there must be a way of rating a race for competitivness using simple or paper ratings sorry if i was vague

    its the way he seems to have been placed[keepatem] ran at track two races ago ran well at distance lto cant take jaqouille as his vdw class rating is only 80 while keepatem is the top rated at 371 its also dropping 12 lbs in weight and ran not to long ago so we will see good luck
