KEY Owner Breeding Breeder Jockey Trainer Sponsor 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 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
WHERE TO BET

The bookmakers are located in front of the grandstand in the ‘Betting Ring’. The bookmakers display their odds for each race and compete to offer the best price to customers. These are fixed price bets and the amount of your winnings will be printed on your betting slip. Search around to get the best price for your selection.

WINS: 57
TONY CARROLL becomes All-Weather Champion Trainer for the first time, bettering his second place finish in last season’s championship.
The Worcestershire handler notched his first century of winners during the calendar year 2024 and has sustained that form all the way through the winter season.
Carroll was 16 winners clear of closest challenger James Owen in mid-February and has maintained a healthy advantage since then. Flagbearers for the stable include Init Together, who reeled off a four-timer at the start of the year.
CHAMPION JOCKEY
The All-Weather Champion Jockey title goes down to the wire, with Billy Loughnane and Hector Crouch both strong contenders heading into the final day
Loughnane topped the table in the early part of the season before taking a working holiday in Australia, during which time Crouch hit a rich vein of form and established a clear lead.
Loughnane has steadily reduced the deficit since returning in mid-January and the pendulum has swung back and forth in recent weeks. Both riders are in action on Good Friday, with Loughnane riding at Lingfield Park and Crouch heading to Newcastle.

WEIGHTWATCHER: RED FLYER won off a handicap mark of 82, his rating is now down 6lb to 76.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: PEARL JEWEL trained by C Timmons, Ireland.
This looks wide open and it could pay to take a chance on ROADTOWEMBLEY. He took a definite step back in the right direction returned to a more suitable trip when third atWolverhampton 5 weeks ago and, back on the mark he defied at Newcastle last summer, all looks set fair for a big run. Comte de Loir arrives one of the least exposed and equipped with cheekpieces he’s another to consider Irish raider Pearl Jewel and DanceTime are just a couple of others to consider
