Quote: from Perpetual on 10:00 am on Oct. 1, 2006[br] Edwina Currie spends a week as Big Mac’s wife – what a horrible pair!<br>
Who trains that Edwina Curry mare?
<br>I’d be more worried about who’s been riding her. :o  ;) <br>
If i remember rightly one jockey wore GREY, probably insisted on leaving the hood on and a tongue tie ;)<br>

Quote: from Matron on 5:01 pm on Oct. 2, 2006[br]The BBC may have its weaknesses; but could you imagine what would happen if the Channel 4 "muppets" were let lose over in Paris?

<br>They’d ramble on about the previous days Scoop6. Francome and McGrath would tip half the field of every race and fail to get a horse in the frame and Thommo would be swinging from the Eiffel Tower wearing a beret.<br>
That would be far better :) so it would. <br>
Form ratings never work out any newbie can work that out, speed ratings merely give what a horse has achieved, I know which i prefer. GW on a raw figure would have finished behind Caldra at goodwood on what they ran on the same track over CD. To me if a horse runs quicker than the other has ever run consistantly i know which i would want to be on. <br>I am not interested in breeding or group races with their mickey mouse pace. The cambridgeshire today is far more spectacular than the previous non event.
Quote: from jackane24 on 1:11 pm on Sep. 30, 2006[br]That is exactly what I would actually like to see Cormack, ratings for all different conditions – but look imagine GW’s rating after the Celebration Mile.
Would it be fair to penalise his rating because he didn’t take to the course?
Definately, it highlights an important flaw from a punting point of view.
Quote: from cormack15 on 11:45 am on Sep. 30, 2006[br]Here’s an idea for raters – Perhaps horses could be rated according to the going with three ratings for each horse a bit like this –
George Washington
Soft/Heavy 114<br>Good to Soft/Good 128<br>Good to Firm/Firm 132p
Or perhaps by distance –
Chief Singer
5-6F – 125<br>7-8F – 128<br>9-10F – 120
Does anyone already do that? If not perhaps an opening for someone?
(I just made these ratings up for illustrative purposes btw so please no posts ripping them apart!)<br>
Yup did do a rating for every one H S GS G GF F Hd KPT WPT LPT SFS :) still losing, but one day!
Agree mostly with FSL. Gun to head (Selection) Smart Enough shortish considering distance. Illustrious Blue looks better value, so small D/F if they put the stalls at the mile start by mistake;)
Once it had passed my selection in the race i was willing it home, line didn’t come in time :( .
