Different horses often demonstrate different running styles. Some for example tend to race with early pace, others are more hold up horses.

At certain race courses and under certain conditions, history would indicate that horses having early pace tend to perform a lot better than hold up horses.

In this article I describe a method of calculating Pace Ratings...a score if you like for the anticipated running style of the horse. I also describe particular circumstances under which these High Pace Rating score horses do very well.
