CLASS RATINGS

TrackMaster assigns a class rating (CR) to today's races and all races in which today's starters have raced. A top class race might have a class rating of 100 while a lower-level claiming race might have a CR of 70. By comparing the CR of today's race and the CRs for each horse's recent races you can tell if a horse is moving up or down in class, facing an easier or more difficult field that it has recently. The ratings are deigned to be equal across all tracks. So a horse that has been successful in races with a CR of 90 at one track should be competitive in a race with a CR of 90 when shipping to a different track.

SPEED RATINGS

TrackMaster assigns a speed rating (SR) to each horse's race, where there is enough information to accurately do so. These ratings tell you how fast a horse has been performing. It is based on the horse's actual time and other factors, such as the composition and condition of the track and the post position the horse started from. A horse who races in a top class race might earn a SR of 100 for a good performance while a low-level claimer might earn a 70 for an average performance. Like the class rating, the speed rating is weighted for different tracks and conditions and designed to be equal across all of them. A horse that races consistently in the 80s at one track should be competitive with horses that race in the 80s at another track.

PACE FIGURES

Provides fractional speed figures for each quarter call.: 1st Quarter, 2nd Quarter, 3rd Quarter, and Finish. These figures are all computed using the same principles used in creating the TrackMaster speed ratings only for the shorter fractional distances.
