RatingTheRaces best Flat Trainer of the 2017 is……

William Haggas

First up, the best Trainer is not necessarily the trainer with the most winner.  Some trainers get a stock of horses worth a fair few million, some have a stock of horses worth a few hundred thousand. It would be like comparing two racing car teams where one was stocked with a bunch of Lamborghini’s and the other was stocking some humble Skoda’s. What represents a great trainer, in our eyes, is a trainer who can train his horses, whatever calibre they may be, and place them in races where conditions they are most likely […]

It’s the Melbourne Cup today and here is Liam’s preview!

Almandin:

The obvious starting point to the race as not only is he TOP RATED again but he also won the race last year when TOP RATED. He’s had 3 runs since which included a win at Flemington in September when easily winning a Listed race. Only 4^th last time out when sent off the 6/5 favourite he was probably not really going for it as the winner of this race wins nearly 20 x as much prize money!

Frankie has been booked to ride this year and although 10lb higher, if we took out Heartbreak City (who was well handicapped) […]

The best 5 courses for our ratings!

Part 1 of the Series!

Now anyone worth their salt knows that ‘best’ means different things to different people, even internally here at RatingTheRaces this can be debated. From my (RTR-Aaron) perspective (as algorithm designer) our algorithm is trained to predict winners, so the ‘best’ courses are those where we can predict the winner with the highest degree of accuracy.

Other ways ‘best’ could be interpreted is by Profit and Loss or by ROI.

So let’s dig into the data, probably worth noting that our Top 5 can definitely change in the future. We can also touch on the worst course for our Ratings algorithm to […]
