Star Ratings Explained
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
HHHHH Selected to win the race
HHHHI Good chance of being placed.
HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
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.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: BEAR TO DREAM trained by M Attwater, Epsom, 126 miles.
Claims can be made for most here but it could just be worth chancing the returning GUITEAU. He starts out for new connections potentially very well treated on the pick of last year’s form and his record fresh is another positive ahead of this. Sorontar and Bear To Dream may well provide chief resistance.

Marginal preference in this open handicap is for CLOUDSIDE ROCK who didn’t enjoy the rub of the green when seventh at Kempton last time and can now capitalise on a handy-looking mark. Course scorer Spirit Of The Bay heads the list of dangers ahead of Forest Hills and Carp Kid.

RACE SUMMARY
Leading ARO trainer James Owen fields couple of unexposed fillies in Piccadilly Lady and Hibikinada Du Mazet, both of whom are open to plenty of improvement. Also unexposed is Another Angel who looked close to getting off the mark last time when burdened with top weight, he should turn the tables with Aloof in this higher grade. However, in a trappy looking contest, a chance is taken with JEEWAN. By a sire who was a world beater at this trip, he showed a surprising turn of foot here when placed over a mile behind decent horses and his jockey’s claim is an added bonus.

Dual winner over further Close up on return over a mile here (winner won Listed event since) but found things tough at level weights at the same trip when a distant third (Piccadilly Lady 5th) latest. Seems to act on any going and return to handicap company and a greater stamina test all in his favour (R14 W2 P6) (OR 73)
