THE TOP 50 THREE-YEAR-OLDS OF 2008
That time of the year when, the winter seasons concluded, the proven, progressive and promising juveniles of the year
warrant analytical attention. In 2007, top-rated Bourbon King went on to victory in the Colts’ Trial Stakes and the Summer
Derby at Bangalore en route to taking the Indian 2000 Guineas and the Ruia Cup in Mumbai. Autonomy and Set Alight possess the necessary credentials to dominate the classics this time around, indeed, unlike Bourbon King, the Indian Derby trip should eventually be within their compass.
THE RATINGS
Each horse has been allotted a numerical rating which, simply put, represents a realistic mark off which he or she can commence racing in an all-age handicap. Top-rated Autonomy at 90, for example, would shoulder 62 kgs. in Class II, a rating impartially matched to ability shown.
THE RATING SYMBOLS
The following symbols may or may not be attached to the rating of each horse;
p = reasonable scope to progress and improve on his or her rating.
pp = enormous scope for progression; likely to leave his or her rating well behind.
d = may have deteriorated, and may be no longer capable of running to his or her rating.
FORM SUMMARY
Reading from left to right, the form summary (in numerical figures) indicates the placings of the horse in his or her races for the season, regardless of centre or combination of centres.
For example, a form summary of 10243 would show that the horse ran five times in all, won on debut, finished
unplaced (not in the first four) on his or her second start, then ran second, fourth and third in its three subsequent
outings.
