These guys have a VERY VERY accurate system for measuring a Thoroughbred's ability.:lol:

Take a look at how they have Musket Man ranked # 48 on the list.

Power ratings my ass.

That's not the way I'd rank them...IMO, just someone's opinion.

They are however, very prominent advertisers of FULL CARD REPORTS...I wonder if that's why Xfile keeps pimping them here...could be a reason...I don't know...just saying...

Now he's going to call me a hater... :lol:

PS. You're going to end up making me hate one of my favorite TV shows of all time if you keep this up...

How can you call them power rankings when is is a beauty contest?

"All of the rankings are determined by Horse Racing Nation visitors, who can rate each horse 1 through 10 stars each week".

Either I am missing something (wouldn't be the first time) or this is a total crock.

They call them power ranking when in fact they are popularity rankings. So no you're not missing anything and yes they are a total crock.

Looks just as accurate as American Idol voting to me! :liar:

It's no worse than the NCAA football or basketball rankings.

They probably just did this to rile up Rachel fans so that they will register for the site and vote
