HHIII Unlikelytowin butnot totallywithout hope

HIIII Canbegiven 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 non-handicaps 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.

RACE STATS RACE SUMMARY

Neil Mulholland has an interesting pair in DYNAMIC KATE and Happy Returns

The former is 2-2 over C&D and shaped well on her return at Ludlow so could be the way to go, although her stablemate leaves the impression she has races in her. Another Mystery was a runaway winner at Market Rasen and is dangerous to discount for all he’s not looked the most hardy
