Horse racing ratings with nothing hidden.

The 15 signals behind every rating

Every horse in every UK and Irish race is measured on the same signals, every day. Stronger evidence earns more points, and the points add into one score:

1. 01Horse form (last 5)
2. 02Trainer form (last 10)
3. 03Jockey form (last 10)
4. 04Horse win % at course
5. 05Horse win % on going
6. 06Trainer win % at course
7. 07Jockey win % at course
8. 08Trainer + jockey combo
9. 09Market move
10. 10Racing Post tips
11. 11Top tipsters
12. 12Official rating
13. 13Bot's top rated
14. 14Top performance rating
15. 15Top speed figure
16. ★One score. Top score takes the pick.

The scale runs to the mid-500s for an exceptional profile; across a season the average runner scores around 270. The highest-rated horse in each race becomes the bot’s ★ pick, and a “Best in race” count shows how many signals a runner leads outright.

Each of the 15 counts on its own: horse form, trainer form and jockey form are separate signals, and so are the course, going and combination records. Exactly the same 15 dials appear in the simulator, so anything the score uses, you can re-weight yourself.

And the card carries even more

Beyond the 15 scored signals, every runner’s card shows the data a serious punter would otherwise chase across three or four sites: draw, weight and class, official rating alongside Racing Post Rating and Top Speed, live prices from the major bookmakers with the best price highlighted, and every market move from the opening show. One card, the whole picture - very few places bring all of it together.

Why transparency beats a black box

Open any runner in the dashboard and the score breaks down line by line: +85 for official rating, +50 for course record, and so on, with a marker on every signal the horse leads. When a pick loses, the results page tells you what the scoring liked about the horse that beat it. Ratings you can interrogate are ratings you can actually learn from - that’s the difference between a scoring system and a tipster with a spreadsheet.

Tested against 13,000 real picks

The system’s record is public: 13,000+ rated picks over the last 12 months, roughly one winner in four at the top of the card, and a clear dial effect - picks scoring 400+ win around 27% of the time, 450+ around a third. Every claim on this page is checkable inside the app, race by race, and the simulator will happily re-run the whole record under your own weights if you think you can tune it better.

Use the ratings your way

Follow the top pick as a straight tip on today’s tips page, treat the scores as a shortlist for your own predictions, or set a score threshold and let the automation tools carry out your rules on your own Betfair account. Scores are information, not betting advice - 18+, please gamble responsibly.
