Notes source: Racing Australia Classifications Committee
Notes source: Racing Australia Classifications Committee
The Australian Classifications are an accurate tool in comparing the merits of horse’s performances over time. From season 2000/01 onwards the weights
of those horses listed have been aligned with those weights of the other age categories and weights prior to this season have been retrospectively
adjusted in the list below. From 1 August 2005 Australia adopted the international standard in rating fillies and mares and no longer add a sex allowance
of 4 rating points to their ratings.
