I think the first race at Carlisle today showed up the problem in my ELO ratings. The problem being a lack of information. That first winner at evens was 3rd of the 4 rated in the race. I looked to see why and realised it was in a 4 runner race with only 1 running elsewhere. Now in this race were 2 runners who both ran pretty close to the last run. This has seen a massive improvement in the rating for that race - won by Armor, which has put the top 2 in my top 30. As i get more data the results will improve but not really a betting medium i would say! Be interesting for Greyhound racing, especially Graders at a track. Works well in sports events due to the more frequent competition between teams or players. Will keep going though as it's interesting!
I imagine you had El Caballo well clear based on your Armor rating so well done. If i get round to it will change the format to rating the horses similar to my Hong Kong form method using past and future runs if I can work out how to do,
Great work with your ratings,
