These odds are calculated using a formula that combines both the Wizard weight ratings (Wrat) and time ratings (Trat). (“*” indicates a main chance). Weight Rating. Rating for each horse based on traditional weight handicapping techniques. The top rated horse is the one on 100. Convert the ratings into predicted beaten margins by allowing 4 rating units to equal 1 length. Example: Falvelon which is rated at 94 would be rated to finish 2 lengths (8 units divided by 4) behind the horse rated 100. Time Rating. Rating based on the horse’s race times. Can be converted to margins in the same manner as the weight ratings (Wrat). Falvelon has a Trat score of 97 which means it is rated on times to finish 3⁄4 of a length (3 units divided by 4) behind the horse rated 100.
