Racing Post Ratings for Godolphin's Derby Runners
 

Anyone know the conversion from the top Racing Post Rating of 112 for both Desert Party and Regal Ransom into a Beyer and/or BRIS speed number? I've seen one conversion that puts that at around 98/99, respectively, and another that approximates it at 105/106, respectively. Big difference so I'm curious if anyone has a source for an accurate conversion?

Translates......112 ..Beyer 105 Bris ...106 TSN...100

as a supporter of Desert Party I'll take that :D

I think it is tough to compare Racing Post Ratings to Beyer Speed Figures...

RPR are class ratings while BSF are just that, speed figures, having to do with the way the track was playing, bias/variant, pace setup, etc.

I don't think they can really be compared, despite the fact that there are "conversion" charts saying you can.

You're right about this. . . and I don't think it's that important to try to convert the number in order to evaluate the Godolphin horses' relative speed/abilities to those we have a better handle on.
