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
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
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.

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
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. To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy, please visit our website www.newcastle-racecourse.co.uk

The return to this course could be just what the doctor ordered where QUIET RESOLVE is concerned Indeed, he has barely put a foot wrong in five previous visits here and is now lower in the weights compared to when runner-up in back-to-back C&D handicaps earlier this year.The consistent Callianassa looks sure to be involved in the finish, while Starliner also merits respect and Bear Kode won’t be far away if able to reproduce the form of his reappearance effort.

THE PAUL DARLING GOSFORTH PARK CUP
Tonight’s Gosforth Park Cup is run in the memory of Paul Darling OBE KC.
As Chairman of the Horserace Betting Levy Board, Paul was a hugely influential figure across British horseracing and betting, and was always a keen supporter of racing here at Newcastle.
Having grown up in South Tyneside, Paul was a regular attendee at the Northumberland Plate Festival and everyone at Newcastle Racecourse and Jenningsbet are proud to remember him with the renaming of tonight’s Gosforth Park Cup.
We are delighted to welcome Paul’s wife Camilla to the Racecourse this evening, along with family and friends. We remember Paul’s love of racing and his huge contribution to the sport over many years.
