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.

RACE SUMMARY GREAT D’ANGE has more to offer over fences and is taken to bounce back from his late Warwick fall when still going strongly and resume winning ways. Poet’s Corner is weighted to go well on the back of his recent Huntingdon third with Monty Guiry and Yaazaain both high on the shortlist too.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: LORD BRYAN trained by P Bowen, Haverfordwest, 176 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

GASTARA looked a big threat to Lord Bryan when hampered 3 out at Ffos Las last month and is well worth another chance to show his chase mark is workable, particularly as this slightly sharper test should help if anything. Peter Bowen’s hat-trick seeker can give him most to think about ahead of Royal Magic, who should find this a bit easier then the Aintree Class 2 he contested on his comeback.

RACE SUMMARY

GLAJOU isn’t the heartiest and has a mixed record over fences for Paul Nicholls, but he returns to this sphere on a potentially lenient mark following a break and is taken to capitalise.

Master Malachy is respected in his hat-trick bid, while it’s too soon to be writing off Kolisi given his earlier progress.

RACE SUMMARY

This stiffer test promises to suit BIOWAVEGO and he is marginally preferred to French-import Ike Sport. This is by no means a two-horse race though, with San Giovanni respected on the back of his latest effort at Newton Abbot where he looked the most likely winner when running out at the second last.
