Compiling ratings by which to provide objective assessments of the relative abilities of racehorses has generally been based on two fundamentals; collateral form and race times. The production of ratings or handicaps has relied almost exclusively on these two factors. Therefore the c...
This weekend, somewhat incredibly, sees the first of the season’s flat classics with the 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket. We’ll have a full preview of both races at th...

Binocular, last year’s Champion Hurdle third, continued his build up to the big race with an easy win Sandown, land...
