Race Compare does that for you, from the sectional times, ...

One system, no rating rule
In the System Builder, add two rules: Course ...
Limerick (Saturday 17 to Sunday 18 October): this weekend's big jumps meeting. For each we went through every jumps runner at the course in the same month since 2018 and asked one question: did they win more often than their Betfair price said they would?
