BC Day- Rating the EURO's

[Tuffmug]

BC Day around the corner and whole bunches of Euro's coming over to race. How do you rate them relative to US horses?

Previously, I have rated via Timeform ratings where Best Timeform minus 12 = approximate BEYER rating.

Any other suggestions?

Think the BRIS Ult PP have a CR (Class Rating) for pace line/running line for the Euros. I could be wrong though. This is going to be extra tuff in the classic ranking those Euros since they have not raced on dirt B4.

GR1,

Last year at FG those CR's were a pretty good gauge of a Euro turfers ability. I'll be checking them out closer this season.

Cool, way back before I became a lazy computer handicapper, I really liked using the CR rating in the Ulitmates. In matter of fact, I would use the CR rating like a speed fig and didn't use the Bris Speed figs unless they were over PAR...Just use

CR
RR
Pace Figs
Pars (both pace and final time)
Running Style (my own, not BRIS)
and Trip notes.

All that worked real well...
