Modified Speed Ratings of 3 year Olds

Hi,
Since first classic of the season, Fillies Trial Stakes is scheduled on Sunday 15th June, I thuoght it appropriate to let you know of Modified Speed Ratings for
3 Year Olds, which have run current season.

The ratings are at weights of 56kgs for colts & 54.5 kgs for fillies.
SET ALIGHT 120
FANTASTIC QUEST 112
FLEETING ARROW 110
MARK OF GIBRALTAR 109
KIARA 109
PALAZZIOS SUN 104
ARCHIPENKO 100
ARKTOUROS 99
OWN VOICE 98
STAR WAVE 96
GLEAMING SKY 95
STAR OF WASHINGTON 95
SUGAR RAY 94
GRAND MADAME 94
SALSERA 93
TOMSK 92
ORIGINALITY 91
MONEYINTHEBANK 90
NOBLE VIEW 90
ABLE ASSOCIATE 90
STAR PRESENTATION 89
QUEENS GUEST 87
BLUSHING BEAM 87
RIMPUCHE 86
AQUITAINE 85
I have not posted the ratings of other 3 yr olds, which have a rating of less than 85.
If I have missed any horse let me know.
The above ratings are based on my study & system.It may be possible others may have different opinion.
As per the above ratings SET ALIGHT is towering above others. Barring a mishap it looks like, Pesi's ward is going to lift all the classics.
The other horse which showed phenominal improvement is FANTASTIC QUEST.
We have to wait & watch its progress & which centre's classics MAM is going to target.
Star of washington is not really tested due to the withdrawal of Equidae which is another good type. At this stage it's difficult to comment on his chances in colts trial stakes,though it has won its preparatory race in great style.
The horses which have run sparingly, have chance to improve their ratings further.

Madhu ,

Good work on the ratings but My view is that Rimpuche should be above 98.Having Won THREE RACES since debut ,i feel that the rating should be close to 100.It is very unfair to rate him below the likes of Salsera , originality , Money in the Bank ,Noble View and a host of NON Performers.

I also feel that Archipenko and Arktouros do not deserve to be ahead of Star of Washington ,GleamingSky , Star Wave and a whole lot of runners.

Regards,

Dear Shyam,
My work is based totally On the time the horse posts.Let's take the case of Star of Washington.Whom did it beat,total non performers like Enduring Star on it's maiden win & next Dorabella from Hyderabad.Though the style of victory was great, still the time it posted was not good enough as it was not stretched by the opposition.How ever I reserved my comments for Star OF Washington, if you have noticed.As for Rimpuche is concerned, it has run many times & I'm sure that my rating is correct.However I will recheck again with due respect to your observations.Watch my word, you will hear more about Tomsk.Noble View beat a highly fancied Shoot a Rainbow out of sight.Only the time will tell, how far these ratings go.Any how thanks for your comments which are really needed to cross check, with reference to another professional, who is as passionate as me about racing.

Regards & have good day tomorrow.

Hi shyam,
I checked up the rating posted by Rimpuche in Fillies Trial takes, & it posted same 85 as per its previous best. Also my best rated horses SET ALIGHT & KIARA finished 0ne/Two.Ratings do work when horses are are allowed to run on their merits.This is my feeling.
Regards,
Madhu
