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

Proud Champions of the Sunflower Lanyard Scheme All of our member racecourses participate in the Sunflower Lanyard Scheme, a nationwide initiative for those with disabilities that may not be visible. A sunflower lanyard discretely signals to staff that the person wearing the lanyard may need additional support or a little more time when attending racedays. Guests are welcome to bring their own lanyards or to register in advance by contacting the racecourse they’ll be attending. Sunflower lanyards can also be collected at certain entrance points. If you would like more information, please ask a member of staff.

FIRST RACE 4.25 TWO MILES ABOUT FOUR FURLONGS (2M 4F) FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS

THE ROYAL EQUESTRIAN BEDDING HANDICAP STEEPLE CHASE (CLASS 5) Total race value £6061 x Owners Prize Money. 1st £1920, 2nd £960, 3rd £480, 4th £289, 5th £280, 6th £280, 7th £280, 8th £280. (Penalty Value £2505.16) Weights raised 1lb and paragraph 34 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (16-21): Jonjo O’Neill (25 wins from 159 runners, 16%) runs WRITE IT DOWN TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): J R Jenkins (2 wins from 16 runners, 12%) runs LE POGUES STORM WEIGHTWATCHER: WRITE IT DOWN won off a handicap mark of 95, his rating is now down 14lb to 81. LONGEST TRAVELLER: FLAMBOYANT JOYAUX trained by A Robson, Hawick, 263 miles. RACE SUMMARY DREAMSUNDERMYFEET made a winning start over fences in completing a hat-trick at Southwell and should go on improving. He’s taken to defy a 5lb rise at the main expense of Flamboyant Joyaux, who made a respectable start for this yard at Perth. Le Pogues Storm ended his time with Alastair Ralph with a good second over this C&D and is another to consider. 1-2-3: 1.DREAMSUNDERMYFEET (IRE) 2.FLAMBOYANT JOYAUX (FR) 3.LE POGUES STORM (IRE) KEY colours

RACE SUMMARY LONGHOUSE SALE went for home a bit sooner than ideal when a narrow third to Bathiva in a Uttoxeter handicap chase last time so, with Tristan Durrell taking 7lb off, he’s fancied to turn the tables with that rival in a race that the pair should dominate. Leapaway, who scored readily over C&D last time, is an obvious danger if he’s in the same form. 1-2-3: 1.LONGHOUSE SALE (IRE) 2.BATHIVA (FR) 3.LEAPAWAY (IRE) Owner no

RACE SUMMARY An opening British mark of 107 looks workable for JEWARI OF SAINTS based on the manner of her comfortable all-the-way success in a French claimer last month so she’s the selection, although a strong market move for Samba Dancer, who also starts out for a good new yard here, would make a him a big threat.

HORSE WELFARE It is standard policy that in the event of a horse requiring veterinary treatment whilst on site, screens will be erected whilst a diagnosis of the injury is made by one of the three veterinary surgeons deployed around the course. The screens are designed to afford privacy during this diagnosis. Please do not always assume the worse, and at all times the horse’s welfare is our paramount concern.
