Snoopdog Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 For years the top rated horse by Formcast in the Daily Mail was on a mark of 78. (I have no idea what is magic about the number 78). But from today - and without a word of explanation in the paper, the 78 has disappeared. The Formcast numbers are now similar numbers to Racing Post ratings (which are similar numbers to Official Ratings - adjusted for handicap and other factors of opinion of chances). The may not be a bad thing and potentially opens up more avenues for "system inventors" but a few words of explanation would have been nice. I use the Formcast top rated as one of the inputs in one of my systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thread about it here: Basically the guy who did it has retired. It would seem they don't intend to replace it with an alternative.
