Good morning...
I do apologise for today's Morning News being slightly late.
I did get up early but...
When I checked my server logs (something that I do every morning)...
I found that an update that I installed yesterday had gone horribly wrong.
Thus it's been flat out for me since about 4am.

Compass Ratings
There is no more racing in Hong Kong until Saturday 5th of September.
Many thanks to Chris D for reminding me of this.
During the quiet period...
I'll start looking at some of the statistics for the races so far this year.
Spotlight Ratings
There are no Spotlight Ratings rated races today.
There are some International Group, Graded or Listed races but...
None of them look good to rate.

Later this week I shall be rating (well in advance) any decent races that need to be rated as part of my Ante Post Ratings service.
Obviously, you as Focus Ratings members will get access to these ratings for free.
I will be spending one day next week updating the Ante Post Ratings.
