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.

ROCK LEGEND holds the clear edge on form and looks to have been found an excellent opportuntiy to open his account over hurdles here. In-form maiden Limerick Legend appeals as the one to chase home Dan Skelton’s 5-y-o, with Sedgefield-scorer Royle Steel the pick of the remainder.

RACE SUMMARY

DAWN RAIDER had plenty left in the tank when a ready scorer at Leicester at the start of the month and an 11lb rise shouldn’t prove enough to stop him completing a quick hat-trick.

In-form duo Barden Bella and Broomfields Kan look the two to chase home Gary Hanmer’s improver in that order.

RACE SUMMARY

JETOILE found the Betfair Hurdle too much last month but dominating this race will be much more up his street and he can return to winning ways. Conversely, Kayf Hernando goes down in trip and he’s likely to bounce back given the yard he represents on the back of a wind op.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: TAMGHO BORGET trained by Christian Williams, Bridgend, 338 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

Low-grade fare with TAMGHO BORGET looking very interesting. He beat a multiple hurdles winner now rated 124 by Timeform in a point, and, now granted a low mark, handicap chasing over this sort of trip could be the making of him. Shanbally Rose ran into one at Musselburgh and might have done so again here. Sir Apollo is another to note.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: THEOCRAT trained by N Hawke, Tiverton, 357 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

The fitting of blinkers has seemingly been the catalyst for KAJAKI’s return to form the last twice, and it’s unlikely that a 4lb rise for his Sedgefield success will be enough to prevent him from following up here. Getareason also appeared to benefit from the addition of new headgear when third in a first-time visor over this C&D recently and he is feared, along with Duty Calls and Idilico.
