STAR RATINGS EXPLAINED Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below: ##### Selected to win the race. ####! Good chance of being placed. ###!! By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims. ##!!! Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. #!!!! 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 non handicap 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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted 5


KALAHARI KING (FR)

BAY/BROWN GELDING 2001 KAHAYSI – QUEEN OF WARSAW (FR)

It may be unusual for a horse who never ran at Uttoxeter to have a race named in his honour, but KALAHARI KING has a close association as his owners are local and keen supporters of the Racecourse and their company, PEKTRON Ltd, sponsor again today in addition to being long-standing Box Holders. KALAHARI KING ran in the red and white quartered colours of his owner Julie Morgan and took his connections on the journey of a lifetime, becoming a regular sight at major festivals for over 5 years racing on English turf after his earlier days in France. He made an immediate impact on the Jumps scene, running in 49 races, winning 12 and was placed in 14. He had career earnings of over £430,000. In his first season he won at Musselburgh before making the first of his 5 visits to the Cheltenham Festival, where he finished 4th in the Grade 1 Supreme Novices' Hurdle. He was placed in the Scottish Champion Hurdle and later won easily at the Punchestown Festival. The following year he won three Novice Chase’s en route to Cheltenham for a tilt at the Arkle, where he finished second in a photo-finish. Later, at Aintree, he won the Grade 1 Maghull Novices' Chase in decisive style. He made three further trips to Cheltenham, finishing 3rd in the Queen Mother Champion Chase and the following year finishing 2nd in the Ryanair Chase. He was retired in 2012, with his official handicap mark of 163, just below his career high of 166. He was a horse of a lifetime of Neil and Julie Morgan but after 12 happy years in retirement they were sad to say goodbye to him when he passed away, two years ago. We thank Neil and Julie Morgan of PEKTRON for their support of the race from which a future star may develop.


FIRST RACE 12.35 ABOUT TWO MILES (1M 7F 214YDS) FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS

Total prize fund £15000 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £6059, 2nd £3029, 3rd £1515. (Penalty Value £7921.50)

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (20-25): O Murphy (62 wins from 291 runners, 21%) runs HOLD THE SERVE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): O Murphy (8 wins from 35 runners, 23%) runs HOLD THE SERVE LONGEST TRAVELLER: CONSTELLATION WALK trained by H Fry, Corscombe, 186 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

None of the trio can be ruled out but Olly Murphy’s HOLD THE SERVE is taken to build on the promise of his recent chasing debut second at Perth and go one better. Count of Vendome rates a big threat on his first go in this sphere, while fellow chasing newcomer Constellation Walk also needs considering.

TARANIS DUBH took a step forward despite still looking green when going in at Worcester recently and with this step up in trip also a positive he is taken to concede weight all round. Nicky Henderson’s Haydock bumper winner St Gabriel brings a fair bit of potential on his hurdling debut and rates a big threat though, while Iamtheidaho is another newcomer to this sphere to command respect.

RACE SUMMARY

The addition of Sean Bowen may well see KALLY DES BRUYERES double his tally over fences, while Kingston Gent, Kaviar Wood and Soldier In Mayo are the likely dangers of those with experience. The trio of chasing debutants all need a market check, with Nevershedatear perhaps most interesting on paper.

LOU PRINCE changed hands for £240,000 after winning his sole outing in Irish points in March and, with a subsequent bumper back in third that day, the form looks strong. He can maintain his unbeaten record switched to Rules, perhaps at the expense of Givemeyourword, who found only a promising sort too good on her sole start between the flags.
