At the end of the day, I can't give CC a time rating for yesterday because I don't have Standard Times for Irish courses.

What I could do would be to work out a form rating for winner of the fastest other race of the meeting, probably the 3yo handicap on the basis of this thread, get a time rating that matches the form rating and apply the relative going allowance to the Guineas based on the time differential.

It would probably give me something very close to what my own methods would otherwise come up with. Then if subsequent events show that the form rating undervalues the 3yo handicap I can increase the figures across the board.
