2010 HORSE RATINGS


The 2010 Official and Racing Post horse ratings names the current Top 10 horses in jump racing, and flat racing in two categories:
3 year old worldwide, and races of 7 - 9 furlong worldwide. NB: 8 furlongs in a mile.

Racing Post Ratings (RPR) are based on a horse's racing ability in relation to the weight carried i.e. if horse X beats horse Y carrying
the same weight then it is awarded a higher rating. The ratings are expressed in pounds (lb) so a horse rated 140 is regarded as 10lb better than one rated 130. There is a sliding scale for converting lb to distance where 3lb = 1 length over 5f and 1lb = 1 length over 2m
and upwards. Official ratings (OR) use the same criteria as Racing Post Ratings, but are compiled by the British Horse racing Board (BHB) and are used to determine the weights horses carry in handicap ratings. By contrast to RPR the BHB rating listed for horses in
results reflect the horses' ratings going into the race not what they achieved in the race.

Duty beginning to look a special Guineas bet

She may have been beaten when expected to make a winning reappearance at Maisons Laffite earlier this month, but French star
Special Duty still looks the pick of the pack as the countdown to the StanJames.com 1,000 Guineas continues, writes Elliot Slater.

A brilliant winner of last season's Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes on the Rowley Mile in October, Special Duty, trained by the much respected Criquette Maarek-Head, was clearly in need of the outing in her last race. She was all at sea on the very testing ground
when failing to quicken in the closing stages on her seasonal bow, eventually finishing a one-length third to the decent Joanna.

As a result of that defeat bookmakers have reacted by pushing the daughter of Hennessy out from as short as 9/4 to 4/1 in the
horse racing betting.This price is beginning to look very tempting, especially with no particularly impressive winners noted during
the British classic trials over the last week.

In defence of Special Duty, it should have come as no great surprise that she wasn't beaten up on her return to racecourse action and connections are surely looking to get her spot on for the first fillies' classic. In such deep ground giving the filly a very hard race could have backfired and left the three-year-old jaded before Newmarket, but in the end she had a good workout and was certainly not disgraced.

The bonus from her defeat is the overreaction of the bookmakers, who for once appear to be more than generous in going 4/1 about
the French raider. I think we will see a different horse at HQ on May 2nd, and Special Duty at 4/1 looks a cracking racing bet to take the 1,000 Guineas back to France.
