So on a value basis you and @Huey should have trained 5 champions by now? I'm not sure why Pivotal Ten is in the mix. Hardly done much except win some South Island black type. Was a risky purchase as a yearling at $15k. As for Rough Habit he was homebred and raced before he was sold. On that basis there's bound to be a champion for sale on Gavelhouse. -
Did a pound = a dollar in 1967? -

Depends I used pounds as the currency didnt change until July 1967. Not as old as @Huey to remember what time of year the sales were held. -
Yes. My point exactly. Though it may be of more use to connections and possibly jockeys reviewing a specific performance. Punters willing to do the work might also benefit because most won't take the time or effort required, giving those who do an edge.

This information has been available for years in other jurisdictions and there is no sign that wagering has dropped off because of it. I know a number of individuals who download the data and process it themselves. I also know that the top trainers have software programmes that analyse race videos for individual horse performance. The days of stopwatches are disappearing. Do you seriously think that bookies analyse every single horse in every single race to set their opening markets? They biggest edge they have is the real time market information. How do you assess value if you don't review race performance? You're kidding? You'd rely on a quote from a Trainer? The better option would be up to date videos with sectionals of jumpouts and trials like they do in Australia - particularly Victoria. Trackwork watching is only useful if sectional times are provided not that I've ever seen a reliable correlation between that and raceday performance.
