His official Sand rating is 121 and his Turf rating is 99?? So what they did to the Goose's horse is even more bewildering now :blush: :S

Give everything but up!

That Rating is no good anywhere but the Vaal Sand(So few top horses compete there for it to be taken seriously - Look at In A Rush - He should murder everything on the Poly yet he does not. To have a rating like that he should break the course record every time he runs there. It's like picking the leading try scorer of the Robben Island 15 for the Springboks. The Vaal Sand is like a Country all on it's own and such a Rating is laughable

His last 2 runs he has run to a 102-104 so imo he is very overrated

in my books he earned that figure when he won the Flamingo mile, so I'm not surprised...

he was a 111 after that race and went up to 116 after a 3rd in the GR 2 EMERALD CUP - His Rating was hoofed because he beat Pylon(121 also a crazy rating)

The fact is these ratings are too high and that means that all the sand rating are too high. Pylon, Tommy are not 120 + rated horses on sand or any other surface. There should be no sand horse in SA rated above 110 just because the quality of horses running in those races are not at that level.

why continue to complain about the handicapers rather take advantage of their so called many errors which should bring many punting oppurtunities for you ...
