Not a whole lot changed with the order of horses per 'the system'.

Hush Writer stayed on 9 points but received a boost to his handicap. An 8th place finish doesn't sound too notable, but it was his first Group 1 race and he only finished 2 lengths behind the winner in The Metropolitan. His rating moved from 96 to 101.

A similar story for Vow And Declare but the rise in his rating was even larger: from 85 to 100. Notable rating rises also went to Te Akau Caliburn (+4), Alfarris (+5), Looks Like Elvis (+4) and Attention Run (+12), though those are all well down the order.

Rostopovich dropped down the table following what looked like a meh run in The Turnbull. The Stewards Report said he over raced early and was three wide. He held his ground at the end but did not run on.

Kings Will Dream gained a point after his win in the same race. Neufbosc, Wolfe, Supernova and Fairlight also moved up to 8 points. But it's a different 8 points really... Wolfe and Supernova took out the placings in the Bart Cummings, gaining a point for finishing within 3 lengths of the winner. Fairlight gained a point for the same but his was via a 7th placing in a BM74. Neufbosc earned an extra point for starting at < $16; never mind that he finished 30 lengths behind!


Ispolini, Finche and Surprise Baby are still on top with 10 points; the latter the only one to have a Conduit Mare Stamina figure of 17 (on the minus side: he's carrying too much weight).
