E1 = 85
E2 = 91
TT = +6, so Presser rating is 97
E1 = 92
E2 = 97
TT = -5, so PR = 92
When I use time, I just average the TT and 2nc Call ( ie, TFUS adjusted times, HTR velocity screen)
This rating came from Sartin's old program Contender Scan as Factor S. I found it to be one of the best ideas he ever had. I thing Mitchell used it also, as maybe ability time?
I agree somewhat with GUS, though - sometimes you see horse that defy being classified P, or EP or WTH? I just let the rating s decide for me.

Good stuff Tom. I was influenced by Dick Mitchell's Ability Time also. One thing I always did from way back is add the E1 and E2. Even on just fractions. It works amazingly well with maiden race or frontrunner matchups. When you have a 68.6 vs a 69.6 the decision making is easy. Anyway I still play with these ides all the time. LOve living in this universe!
