Re: Handicap on Sportinglife? Do you mean it's handicap rating ? If so it's the figure that appears on the racecard under the heading 'OR' which stands for 'Official Rating' The figure given is the latest published figure - it might not be the same as the horse runs off today in a handicap race because it might be due to go up or down in the ratings from next week and it's that future figure that the Life shows. Also the OR shown in the Life takes no account of any penalty the horse is carrying in todays race for a recent win
