28/6/2002 edition Handicapping Tips We're all used to hearing "The horse has the class," to justify why a horse handicapped with a high weight should win. Similarly we're told "It's a 54 minimum. So the horse is only six kilos above the minimum." However, the more weight, the less class a horse will have. Give a horse enough weight and it will have no class. By the time horses have to carry 59kg. (60 with the safety vest), many become very dubious betting propositions at short odds. Similarly with jumpers - 69kg. (70 with the safety vest) is a very tough proposition. The table below shows how horses that carried 59kg. or more fared last Saturday. The safety vest is not included in the weight.) It's certainly worth thinking about.
