That's the trouble with ratings; they're more or less obliged to take form at face value without allowing for circumstance.
A few brief points on your notes:
Somersby didn't stay the KG distance, much the same as he didn't stay the Ryanair c/d later in the season.
Though TGB clearly stays 3m, he didn't in the Denman owing to the way he was ridden.
Long Run was reported by his stable to be 'much more forward' for this season's Betfair than he was for last, which doesn't augur nearly so well for his prospects.
