Structural Changes Required At Handicapping System After Corona

By Anilxk | 14-May-2020

Dear Friend's,

Coronaa is a reality...which we must live with in future. This epidemic made huge losses in racing industry all over the world.The speciality of this lock down is denial of opportunity to equine athletes.....

To tackle the lost opportunity of horses, after racing resumes, handicapping systems to be unified by TAI. High weight races of all distances with out allowances is the best option to give un exposed equines to prove mettle. They lost a very valuable year in their life.(Most of the punters not gained anything in lockdown as very few gone for work) Your suggestions please

Hey bro Anil,

Enjoy the good times with the family.

Y worry, stay home,stay safe.

Racing will start when it had to ir might be never.

Think of the lakhs who hv been saved by not going to the racecourse else many hapless punters would be affected by thd killer disease

Time for the authorities to ponder...

Tada

@AnilxK,

Impractical and  utopian suggestions do  not maintain  or  enhance  the value  of  the point a writer  is  trying  to  make. Handicapping  and  resultant  ratings given by  various  handicappers  of  different  race clubs are  based  on  scientific principles. ..

Worldover  no official handicapping  or  rating  system, can give  more  than  30  or  35%  success  rate is  a  proven  fact...

IF A HORSE WINS , THE HANDICAPPER GIVES 9 OR MORE POINTS ARE 

GIVEN. SOME TIMES NO POINT IS GIVEN.

BETTER RATING HORSES ARE ALSO FAILED COMPARE WITH INFERIOR

HORSES.

CAUSES ARE NOT KNOWN.

EXPERTS ARE REQUESTED TO CLARIFY.

@ Karthik

Racing is continuing in Japan, Australia, Hongkong ,  Newzeald,Germany , Iceland and in Vietnam.Ifvyou are un aware about can't help.

I have suggested surviving theory to gauge un exposed horses.
