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! ⬇️

@tommentatornz @NZTM_TWEET @HKJC_Racing Interesting to see That's Gold on the list. Just presumed Yulong would race him in Aus.

It's a big weekend of racing at both Ōtaki and Riccarton 🏇

And of course, as always, The Leg Up team are striving for 4/4 👀

@TTaylorTAB @HuntRacing

[Stephen Hunt @HuntRacing]

Inside barriers were Gold today at Royal Riverton. Barrier 1 = 5 winners and barrier 2 = 2 winners. History shows that Monday/Day 2 evens out.

[TAB NZ @TAB_NZL]

Best Bet time on The Leg Up for a big weekend of racing across the long weekend 🔥

No surprise but Trentham winning lanes from the 200m = 2,3,1,1,1,1,2,4,3.

Hard to be too critical on how Trentham has raced over the summer but unfortunately yesterday's track was not up to scratch.

Whether it was down to rail movement or body of work...the track will go out for a much deserved spell.

[TAB NZ @TAB_NZL]

The Leg Up crew was in fine form, going 3/4 with their best bets last week 🤝

They're hoping to carry on that form with their best of the weekend for what is a massive day at Trentham this weekend 🔥

Well done Logan Bates on riding his first GP1 winner #jigsaw #aussie

[Stephen Hunt @HuntRacing]

@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).
