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.

RACE SUMMARY CELLO should prove well suited by the step up to a staying trip and Andrew Balding’s lightly-raced gelding is fancied to build on his encouraging effort at Southwell and notch a second career success. Hedonista got right back on track on her second outing after a wind op last time and can pose the biggest threat, whilst Something has a fine record at Newcastle and can’t be discounted upped in trip.

THE EXTRA WINNINGS WITH BETUK ACCA CLUB HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 2) Total prize fund £25200 ª Owners Prize Money. 1st £10405, 2nd £5204, 3rd £2601, 4th £1300, 5th £650. (Penalty Value £13189.68) SS

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): R Fahey (84 wins from 740 runners, 11%) runs MALC TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): D Evans (4 wins from 18 runners, 22%) runs ROHAAN LONGEST TRAVELLER: FIRE DEMON trained by A Balding, Kingsclere, 303 miles.

RACE SUMMARY WE NEVER STOP has shown improved form switched to all-weather on his last 2 starts, only narrowly denied by one dropping in class at Southwell on his latest outing, so he is taken to resume winning ways back in a handicap. Albasheer was succesful in this race last year and is feared most, while Amazonian Dream can go well in his hat-trick bid.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT NEWCASTLE Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider. Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. We also have a high-specification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital.

RACE FIVE

It is our standard practice to erect screens around any horse or jockey requiring attention on the course as this provides privacy and a safe, calm environment in which to accurately diagnose and treat the patient as necessary. Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse.

We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: RORY trained by J Goldie, Glasgow, 146 miles.

RACE SUMMARY Several to consider in this competitive handicap, with DICKO THE LEGEND earning the vote.

He bounced back from a couple of below par efforts when a solid fourth in the Ayr Bronze Cup on his latest start and, having acquitted himself well on the all-weather last winter, he is interesting back on a synthetic surface. Showtime Mahomes didn’t get the rub of the green when third over C&D on Saturday and he is greatly respected, while Too Much and Wee Fat Mac also enter calculations.

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): J Goldie (50 wins from 475 runners, 11%) runs ORIENTAL PRINCE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): J Goldie (2 wins from 9 runners, 22%) runs ORIENTAL PRINCE WEIGHTWATCHER: POCKLEY won off a handicap mark of 76, his rating is now down 30lb to 46.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: PIPERSTOWN trained by K Frost, Newark, 159 miles.

RACE SUMMARY ORIENTAL PRINCE looked well suited by the drop to 5f when getting off the mark in a first-time hood over C&D recently and, with better still to come, Jim Goldie’s 4-y-o can follow up.

Piperstown also opened his account last month and he should be in the mix on the back of a small rise, with Jamie Bond and Rogue de Vega taken to fight out minor honours.
