Star Ratings Explained
Each horse is given a star rating, these are defined below: HHHHH Selected to win the race HHHHI Good chance of being placed HHHII By no means without a chance
HHIII At least one or two hold stronger claims HIIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope IIIII 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-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.
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 7

A dual C&D winner in September, THE ANTHONY GOVER has remained in top form, finding only one who had fallen plenty in the weights too strong over C&D 2 weeks ago. He looks a big player again under Billy Loughnane and shades preference over Crimson Road. Caledonian is another likely player if getting the breaks, whilst Under The Sun also needs bearing in mind on just his second start for James Owen.

TWO COMMANDERS impressed when adding to his tally at Musselburgh 2 starts back and having raced closer to the pace than ideal when fifth at Chester subsequently, he’s well worth another chance to prove his present mark a workable one. Chantelle has been shaping up well in handicaps and may emerge next best, ahead of another last-time-out winner, Montezin.

TIMEFORMVIEWA 3-time winner on all-weather this year, the latest over 6f here in July and probably in better heart than recent form figures suggest, racing too freely when last of 11 at Kempton (6f) 4 weeks ago. Handy draw to work from returned to 7f provided he settles better. TFRHHHHH BHA73 12
