Synthetic tracks
Hi Team,
With the winter wet kicking in, I thought I'd muster up some comment on Synthetic tracks and in particular: - Are ratings as effective? - Are certain types of horses advantaged/disadvantaged? - Can you tell if a horse is going to handle it? So far in my own experience, I've generally stayed away unless a horse has shown a real liking for the synthetic surface. However going through my ratings there doesn't seem to be a great difference in my results on the synthetic tracks. Would love to hear feedback/comments. |
This aroused my interest so I did a test on our ratings.
For what its worth: Over all the performance of our top pick is 26.8% since 2010. Synthetic tracks have an SR of 28.6% for the same period. Obviously the smaller sample of 2900 races vs 80,000 may see this normalized with a greater sample. |
Interesting findings Michal,
Did that correlate to you top 4 also? |
Actually Yes I only have results for the top 3 and its the same
Top 3 over all strike rate 58.8% Top 3 synthetic 60.2% like I said small sample , and I would think that it will regress to the normal over time but at least thus far there is no difference in predictive ability |
