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.

You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet

GOLD LINK has shown consistent form over hurdles with two consecutive seconds, shaping best at Uttoxeter before late jumping errors cost him. He’s fancied to go one better and record a first win in this sphere. Robber’s Bridge is a dual handicap hurdle winner who ran on well at Worcester on his most recent outing despite jumping issues, and should go well again, while D’jo Dela Barriere will benefit from a return to calmer waters

Difficult to be confident about any of these but GRASSHOPPER TIME has less to prove than most arriving on the back of 2 solid efforts over hurdles and a return to a sharper test may see him get off the mark. Gms Prince has the form to be in the mix but remains a maiden as a 10-year-old. Of the rest, Carlton and Buxted Reel could both have more to offer now stepped up in trip, with Pertemps Diamond one to note for support now handicapping over a longer trip on second start for Olly Murphy
