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.

This is the first time WALKING ON CLOUDS has tackled 5f for current connections but he’s not short of pace and is absolutely thriving at present. He looks the way to go, though Level Up is clearly a very big danger if taking up this engagement following an easy win over C&D on Friday.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): M Appleby (92 wins from 727 runners, 13%) runs FURNICOE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): M Appleby (7 wins from 38 runners, 18%) runs FURNICOE LONGEST TRAVELLER: DEBYDINKS trained by K Dalgleish, Carluke, 268 miles.

FURNICOE again found one too strong at Chelmsford 10 days ago but that was a good effort considering how hard she pulled so is worth another chance off the same mark. Goose Rock caught the eye on his return/first start after a breathing operation when third at Newcastle, so is feared most ahead of Mystical Dreams and South Dakota Sioux.
