Hi darky,
The OHR is certainly relevant in particular types of races. Other than for these, IMO it has no relevance other than it provides the handicapper with a trigger from which it assigns the horse weights. The OHR significantly under performs all of our proprietary ratings by a large margin.
SPR's have the ability to identify talent in a horse far sooner than traditional weight/class based ratings. That is why IMO SPR's when used and understood properly are the most accurate measureof a horses ability.
