Hit or Myth – Irish trained NH horses are badly handicapped in the UK

nickdundee

Irish trainers have been very vocal over the years in their view that their horses are badly handicapped when they cross the water. The common argument was generally to do with the fact that they’re rated higher over there. It isn't that simple however. Due to different WFA scales Irish horses start off on lower marks and thus remain lower, so its understandable that their rated higher in UK, but are they TOO high?

Seems like you're just doing this to drive traffic to that blog?

That is one the reasons but also I meant to add I'll answer any questions anyone has on it here. Is posting a link like that a problem?

Yes, pimping blogs/sites isn't permitted on boards.ie, so I'd recommend you'd make yourself familiar with the terms and conditions of boards.ie, to which you agreed when you signed up to boards.ie, before you post again.
