OFFICI A L BH A R ATINGS E X PL AINED
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).

ABOUT SEVEN FURLONGS [7F ABT 14YDS] FOR THREE YRS OLD
THE UNIBET HORSERACE BETTING OPERATOR OF THE YEAR HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 4)
Total prize fund £12500 ¨ Owners Prize Money. 1st £5161, 2nd £2581, 3rd £1290, 4th £645, 5th £323. (Penalty Value £6542.50) SS
LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Watson (25 wins from 137 runners, 18%) runs A TASTE OF HONEY
TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): A Watson (8 wins from 41 runners, 20%) runs A TASTE OF HONEY f Night of Thunder (IRE) - Fragrancy (IRE)
LONGEST TRAVELLER: LORD SAM’S CASTLE trained by I Jardine, Carrutherstown, 218 miles.
A TASTE OF HONEY’s form is on an upward curve and a 3lb rise for her emphatic Lingfield success doesn’t look sufficient to prevent her from completing a hat-trick. Course-winner Yorkshire also looks to have better days ahead of him and is feared most ahead of C&D winner Choisya.

CRUISE has made a positive start for her new stable and may do better still, so she looks well capable of opening her account against some opposition that hasn’t achieved as much as she has Master Dandy makes plenty of appeal on paper and is feared on debut, while Rogue Soldier could get involved if improving from first to second run.

GOLDEN MAVERICK improved and overcame a pace bias when scoring at Wetherby recently and he’s well worth a chance to go in again. Na Scoitear is a likeable type who was better than ever when successful over C&D last time, so he’s regarded as a threat, and it will be no surprise to see Dawn Mission up his game on his first try in handicaps at Chelmsford City (10f, 4/1) 35 days ago. Others make more appeal TFR##!!! BHA61
