Would Barry Dennis Please Stop Shouting At Me

First, I have an ongoing discussion in the Rose Should Blossom This Time comments (at the bottom of the post). My reply is rather long so I have also included it HERE

Can anyone remember the time Norway beat England at football? You know, when the Norwegian commentator screamed, "blah, blah, blah, your boys took one hell of a beating!" Well, imagine him in your mind now....

Now replace him with Barry Dennis and "...your boys..." with "your top rated," and you get an idea of the sounds echoing through my mind today.

You can view our two main services (Handicap Ratings with the Speed Ratings and Select) free for seven days by registering HERE

The Handicap Ratings and Speed Ratings combined top three strike rate for Saturday was 63% following Friday's 63%, Thursday's 77%, Wednesday's 65%, Tuesday's 78%, Monday's 63% and Sunday's 75%, a weekly average of 69%.

There were just six (4) and (5) UK graded races, Saturday producing a very poor 33% top two winning strike rate. Two were won by the clear top rated horse and four races were unsuccessful.

The top rated of the handicaps and speed ratings were also somewhat less than good....

The full top three summary for Tuesday is:

HANDICAPS
Clear top rated strike rate was 15%. Best top rated SP was 5/1
Top two strike rate (incl joints) was 40%. Best 2nd top SP was 9/1
Top three strike rate was 60%. Best 3rd top SP was 16/1

SPEED RATINGS
Clear top rated strike rate was 8%. Best top rated SP was 7/4
Top two strike rate (incl joints) was 25%. Best 2nd top SP was 12/1
Top three strike rate was 40%. Best 3rd top SP was 33/1

note: Unless there are overnight withdrawals there is always one clear top rated horse (in both services). There are never more than three horses in the top two in any race where there are joint 2nd tops (one top rated two joint 2nd top). There are never more than four horses in the top three in any race where there are either joint 2nd or joint third tops.

If a horse isn't in the top three rated of the handicaps or the speed ratings, then it is highly likely it won't win.

You can see an explanation of the Handicap Ratings HERE and an explanation of the Speed Ratings HERE. The Speed Ratings are an addition to the handicaps at no extra cost and you can subscribe HERE. There has never been a better time to join us.

No betting tomorrow. Going to mother for Sunday lunch. Back to selecting losers on Monday.

Have a good day.
