Now in it's 5th year, the first heat kicks off in Geraldton today.
My old mate JR has the favourite, Cool Serenity. Been a bit on her already, $4 in to $2.75 on the TAB fixed.
Can anyone explain how the weights are allocated in this, I'm totally baffled?
Cool Serenity (6m) 20 - 6,2,3 - Rating 69, Prize money = $77k ..... 60.5kg
Startthefriar (6g) 25 - 6,1,3 - Rating 70, Prize money = $90k ..........60.5kg
So, a mare, same age, almost identical record, gets the same as a gelding?
Arabian Riches, a gelding, with the same rating (69) gets 2.5kg less than the mare?
Master Splinter, a gelding, with a higher rating (70) gets 2.5kg less than the mare?
Cheers

As for the mare vs gelding weight differential I'm unsure if there is a discount applicable in that class of race.
