Star Ratings Explained

Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:

HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.

HHHHH Selected to win the race.

HIIII Can be given little or no chance.

HHHHI Good chance of being placed.

HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability. The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions.

A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances). The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in nonhandicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating. For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating.

Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

RACE SUMMARY

Not a lot of strength in depth here so a good chance for HERMES BOY to atone for a wayward display off the bridle at Hereford 3 weeks ago. Tarahumara is the obvious threat.

RACE SUMMARY

A trappy race in which nothing arrives with particularly compelling claims.

CLEMENCIA hasn’t been shaping too badly in defeat this year so he’s the tentative choice in the hope that cheekpieces give him a bit more. Premiumaccess had a possible excuse last time and gets the nod to follow Tim Vaughan’s charge home.

RACE SUMMARY

HERON CREEK has failed to pull up any trees in a trio of maiden hurdles, but improvement may well be forthcoming now that he goes down the handicap route off a lowly opening mark. If the market vibes surrounding this 5-y-o are upbeat, the hint should be taken. Isle of Aron will be a big threat if able to build on his latest effort and Start Point is also shortlisted.

RACE SUMMARY

The vote goes to POST NO BILLS, who shaped with some encouragement when sixth on hurdles debut here in December. He has failed to build on that in two subsequent starts, but he wasn’t knocked about at Catterick last time and better is expected now switched to handicap company. Floy Joy will be a danger to all if able to get back on track, while Benito also merits consideration and Ivy Avenue needs a second look in the betting.

RACE SUMMARY

TRUMP’S BENEFIT lacks a recent run but he’s a consistent sort who returns on a handy mark so he gets the nod in an open handicap. Ballinsker rates the obvious threat on the back of his breakthrough Plumpton success, with Discko des Plages not ruled out too if, as expected, building on his Bangor third after a lengthy lay-off.
