The full top three summary for Sunday (weekly average in red in brackets):

HANDICAPS
Clear top rated strike rate was 17% (17%). Best top rated SP was 3/1
Top two strike rate (incl joints) was 33% (33%). Best 2nd top SP was 13/2
Top three strike rate was 56% (56%). Best 3rd top SP was 9/1

SPEED RATINGS

Top two strike rate (incl joints) was 39% (39%). Best 2nd top SP was 13/2
Top three strike rate was 44% (44%). Best 3rd top SP was 9/4
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 either service) 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 either service) 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.
