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

LITTLE MI MI has been knocking on the door of late and is taken to deservedly get her head in front. She was beaten 3/4-length by Digital over C&D recently and a 3lb swing may well be enough to tilt the scales in her favour this time. If Digital is again perked up by the cheekpieces he should be in the mix once more, while Henery Hawk is also worthy of consideration.

RACE SUMMARY

THREE NON BLONDES is armed with a useful pedigree and she was nicely on top at the finish when making a winning debut at Chelmsford last month. There should be better to come from this filly and she is the clear pick. Polka’s belated debut over this C&D was encouraging enough and she could be the one to follow the selection home, while Evolve and Riley Rocks are both open to improvement.

RACE SUMMARY

ANTRIM made all to win readily at this C&D four weeks ago and remains open to significant improvement despite a 6lb higher mark. Extremely well bred, he can defy the rise to complete the hat-trick. Machete has found his form with a strong finish here recently and could have more to offer, while Without Compromise is thriving at this track with three recent C&D wins.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: CORONADO KING trained by A Watson, Upper Lambourn, 284 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

MESAAFI has proved rather expensive to follow of late, but he wasn’t beaten far off this mark in a Class 2 handicap at Chelmsford a fortnight ago and a reproduction of that would probably suffice. Juan Les Pins has fallen a long way in the weights and merits respect for all he’s on a long losing run.

Bonnie’s Boy and King’s Crown are live each-way contenders.

RACE SEVEN

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 SUMMARY

LAURENS DREAM has twice been successful at this venue and shaped better than the finishing position suggests when sixth here 16 days ago, making headway out wide before flattening out. She’s best judged on Newcastle form rather than recent turf efforts. Korroor, a three-time course winner, has the visor back on, while Fircombe Hall showed revival signs when second over C&D recently.
