I don't make my own and have an enormous respect for those who do. That said, I have always disliked adding subjectivity to adjust figures up or down in an attempt to boil everything down to a figure. To me that is what the "art" of handicapping is all about. Give me the data- pace fractions, good variants, and let me draw my own conclusions about who ran the best race, and more importantly, who projects to run the best race on the day I am handicapping.
