Recently, numerous people have asked me questions around Speed/Performance Ratings. In this article, I explain the broader approach to Performance Ratings, using an example from Champions Day. Check it out below! ⬇️

Stephen Hunt runs the numbers on his own numbers?! 🤔 @HuntRacing explains what ratings are in principle, why they are important and what use they have. Check out the full article below 👇 trackside.co.nz/article/stephe…

@RPWillie This year's Railway will tick many boxes in reaching the G1 standard. Speed Rating +2.8L vs the class. Jigsaw's individual rating was 99.4 which sits above the previous eight-year winning ave of the race. Throw in the sub from = Jigsaw (G1), Sweynesday (G3) & Plat Attack (L).

@HuntRacing Haha, apparently a B grader that came over and that showed our poor sprinters a thing or two 🎣 I bet the Railway will rate good after that as well as a few to follow out of it - did I mention there were 8 Gp1. Winners in today’s race that he 👌🏇🏼🌬️

New winner! 🏆 Paltrow Miss wins at her first Australian start for our team. The 3YO Kiwi filly was purchased after an impressive debut win in NZ and has now made the perfect start here. Now with Ciaron Maher, the daughter of Circus Maximus is bred to get further and looks an exciting addition to the team. Huge thanks to the Ciaron Maher team and Craig Williams for the perfect ride. Exciting times ahead!

It’s Best Bet time on The Leg Up this week, with an action packed weekend of racing headlined by Champions Day at Ellerslie. Can the crew go 4/4 this weekend? @TTaylorTAB @HuntRacing #Racing

@SportNationNZ @ChoicesFlooring Change it. The most frustrating ruling/penalty in the game and thats saying something. The nearest code have it spot on as a knock on/scrum.

@TTaylorTAB @TracksideNZ Hello Thaddues, the point scale per length varies slightly with distance, but as a general guide two points is equal to one length. So we're talking 3.5 lengths.

@TracksideNZ @HuntRacing Hey Stephen, if Well written ran 100 and Belle Cheval a 93 in the Kiwi, what would that roughly equate to in Lengths on the line?

I'd love to see her back up in 2 weeks but if I'm wearing a Yulong hat the job is done here in NZ this prep. Prioritise/target a G1 2400 at Randwick.

@dean_o_williams When your say Major Cups, once upon a time that may've been the ideal description but recently they're glorified rating 85-90s. I understand ratings is only one way to judge horses but our Derby/Oaks often rate a lot stronger when normalised to WFA.

@HuntRacing You could make a case if there was a very weak year of stayers but that category has proven to be a bit of a joke now. Only two years ago Mahrajaan did what very few horses have ever done in NZ racing history winning two major cups and was beaten by a derby winner. Madness!

After the weekend's racing...Well Written's biggest challenge this season may come from First Five in terms of Champion Sprinter/Miler at the HOTY awards.

@dean_o_williams I agree around your point re this season, but shouldn't it be judged year in year out rather than a black n white ruling that a 3YO must take on the older horses at WFA to be considered for winning Open categories? Off your score, Boneval & M Khan wouldn't have won Champ Stayer.

@HuntRacing You deadset may as well give up on having Group racing in NZ if Well Written wins that award…. If a 3yo doesn’t take on the older horses at WFA then this shouldn’t even be getting discussed.
