Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. Can be given little or no chance

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).

The Racing League Joker Card

A new innovation introduced in Racing League 2022 allows each of the managers of the seven competing teams having the opportunity to play a Joker in any two of the 42 races when there are at least 12 horses running.

The Joker doubles the points won by the two horses representing the team in a given race. When played, the team receives double points in that given race but it is not applied to individual jockey points.

The team manager will announce their intention to play a Joker in the Paddock, directly before the selected race This is done by placing a Joker card alongside the team name on the scoreboard in the Paddock.

RACE SUMMARY

CRIMSON SPIRIT showed improved form in line with the step up in trip when opening his account in a 7-runner Epsom maiden (7f) 16 days ago and with the likelihood of more to come now handicapping, he can make another bold bid. Faster Bee caught the eye on nursery debut at Newbury and is feared, with Up The Jazz and Commander Crouch others fancied to be thereabouts.

LONGEST TRAVELLERS: SHAWAAMEKH trained by J F Levins & HALF NUTZ trained by A McGuinness - both Ireland.

It could just be worth chancing HALF NUTZ. Twice runner-up from this mark at Leopardstown in August, he shaped better than his finishing position suggests at Newcastle 2 weeks ago, emptying late on having done plenty. He shades the vote, with Chepstow scorer Imperial Dream an obvious threat. Aphelios impressed when successful at Kempton and is also shortlisted.

RACE SUMMARY

Overcoming a pace bias when successful on return/yard debut over C&D in the spring, KINGMANIA has largely been in better order than recent form figures suggest and, appealing as still being on a workable mark returned to all weather, it would come as no surprise to see a bold showing from James Ferguson’s mare Dionysian and Tosen Wish both arrive on the back of good efforts and are feared, with Hat Toss and Billy Mill others fancied to be in the mix.

NORDIC PASSAGE returned to winning ways in good style when landing a Racing League event at Newcastle 13 days ago, impressing with how he travelled through the race, so he is taken to follow up in his current form. Gulliver lurks on a dangerous mark and is feared most, while Amazonian Dream and Fierce both arrive in good heart and can be thereabouts once more.

NEVER DARK has only been nudged up the weights for last month’s front-running Hamilton win and he’s fancied to follow up for the in-form Iain Jardine yard Angle Land remains on his last winning mark and bounced back to form at Newcastle last time, so also makes appeal with Dettori on board, whilst Michaela’s Boy has been competing in stiffer company and is another who could give a bold bid from the front.

RACE STATS

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (17-22): A Balding (22 wins from 110 runners, 20%) runs SCAMPI TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): A Balding (10 wins from 51 runners, 20%) runs SCAMPI WEIGHTWATCHER: PROTECTED GUEST won off a handicap mark of 88, his rating is now down 6lb to 82.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: STAR HARBOUR trained by A McGuinness, Ireland.

RACE SUMMARY

A fiercely competitive concluding contest to Racing League 2023 and the one who makes most appeal is VALSAD, who went down only narrowly to a progressive 3-y-o at Newbury last month and provided he takes to the surface (makes all-weather debut), Harry & Roger Charlton’s charge can double his tally Regal Empire won twice at this track earlier in the year and arriving on the back of Shergar Cup success, he rates the main danger Onesmoothoperator and Scampi round off the shortlist.
