I am working on completing my own ratings and am a novice at it so need help with 3 things please
1.  how to convert my ratings to expected prices the the best rating would be 200 and the lowest 0
2.  how to convert distance beaten into my ratings so got example if I had a horse rated 100 and it was beaten 1 length how would I incorporate that into my ratings for next time to improve them presumably I need to know what 1 point in my ratings is equal to in distance
3, I need a formula to correct this =AH34+AK34+AM34 basically at the minute it just adds the results of these three columns which = 0 or 4  so would be a total of 12 if all positive  , I want it to add up the three columns and if each = 4 then total would be 12, so  if AH34+AK34+AM34 =12 then place 5 in the column I am using the formula in ( hope I explained it ok )

Re. Q2 (I think you've had a reply to Q1 over on the Horse Racing forum).

I found these formulas in an old spreadsheet for converting distance beaten in lengths to a poundage figure.

[b]Flat[/b]

(lengths beaten * 16) / (race distance in furlongs)

e.g. Beaten 2.5 lengths over 7 furlongs

= (2.5 * 16) / 7 = 5.71 pounds

Jumps

(lengths beaten * 19) / (race distance in furlongs)

e.g. Beaten 2.5 lengths over 20 furlongs

= (2.5 * 19) / 20 = 2.38 pounds

Maybe something you can play around with.

you can format the cell as number, 2 decimal places.
