FORM RATINGS

5 Horse’s name 6 Days since last run 7 Previous Performances /=new season -=new year C=course winner D=distance winner CD=course & distance winner BF=beaten favourite

Included in the form guide below each horse is a form rating, calculated from the horse’s previous performances, taking into account a number of variables such as finishing position, distance won/beaten by, horses beaten/beaten by weight carried, race time (compared with the standard time) going allowance number of days since that performance, etc.

Horses which have not raced will not have a form rating, as may some horses which have raced but not recently in Britain or their performances to-date have not yet merited a rating.

HOW TO BET

1. Pick your Racehorse, look around for the best odds on course, try to proffer the correct stake money for your wager

2. Ask the Bookmaker for your bet by naming the horse. The bookmaker will repeat your bet to his clerk, correct bookmaker if he makes a mistake and receive your Betting Ticket as a receipt for your bet.

3. If your horse wins, give your Betting Ticket to the bookmaker, check your winnings.

4. Check with the bookmaker when placing a bet, the Place Terms. Place Betting, not all on course bookmakers accept each way bets, ie. for a win or a place.

5. In the unlikely event of a dispute after adhering to this procedure, the bookmaker will tell the punter to approach the Ring Official, who will advise you as to your rights.

6. Some course bookmakers have minimum stakes.e.g. £1, £5, £10 but small backers are catered for in the racecourse Betting Shops.

EACH WAY BETTING

In conjunction with The RCA, the bookmakers have introduced standard each-way terms. Bookmakers will provide these terms, or better, when offering each-way betting.

• Fewer than 3 runners - all on to win

• 3 or 4 runners – 1/5 odds a place 1,2

• 5 – 7 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2

• 8 or more runners – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3

• Handicaps with 12 to 15 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3

• Handicaps with 16 to 21 runners (inclusive) – 1/5 odds a place 1,2,3,4

• Handicaps with 22 or more runners – 1/4 odds a place 1,2,3,4

All bookmakers must display on their boards whether they are betting each way or to win only

Unplaced in both NH starts. Third of 7 behind Largy Shark beaten 7l at 22-1 on his hurdling debut here over 2m 3f (soft) in November That was a solid enough effort and stepping up in trip is likely to see him progress. Official BHA Rating5 SALADAM (FR) (27) 2-32 BF 6 11-5

Mr R. Corveller & Mrs R. M. Corveller McCoy Contractors S Placed in two hurdle races and a point-to-point from three starts. Beaten 6l by Hitching Jacking when second of 14 at 3-1jt-fav in a hurdle race at Uttoxeter over 2m 4f (good to soft) in December. Both runs over timber have been promising. Holds every chance. Official BHA Rating 116

Glen Cannel built on his debut effort when scoring on his hurdling bow at Market Rasen in November and the five-year-old commands plenty of respect, despite giving away a penalty to all bar one of his rivals. The vote, though, goes to SALADAM, who has placed on both his starts over timber at Uttoxeter and he appears capable of taking another step forward. Monochromix wasn’t disgraced when third here at the end of November and the extra yardage on this occasion is likely to benefit him.

RACE RESULT DISTANCES

DORA DE JANEIRO could go well after a close-up third when caught late on over further and she looks well handicapped off a mark just 2lb higher now. She may be able to hang on to the lead over this reduced trip, while Wotsmyname seems likely to prove her biggest threat after a solid fifth here on his first start since March in November. Soleil De Cannes is noted as an interesting alternative, having come home second on similar ground in France. totewin: Dora De Janeiro toteeachway: Wotsmyname

ROWDY RUSTLER displayed plenty of promise when finishing second on his chasing debut at Newcastle in November and a 3lb rise for that effort may not be enough to stop him. That said, Gaillimh A Stor could give the selection plenty to think about if he can transfer his hurdles ability to fences, while High Moon is another who is capable of going very well.

GREAT BRITISH BONUS SCHEME

The Great British Bonus (GBB) offers multiple bonuses of up to £20,000 per eligible race for British-bred fillies and mares.

NOTICES

Weights, Pedigrees, Trainers’ Names, Descriptions, Performances and Values of races have been added for the convenience of the Public, but are subject to alteration. All horses must parade in the Parade Ring except by permission of the Stewards, but in all cases must pass through the Ring on the way to the Post.

VEE DANCER landed a hat-trick of victories in the space of nine days in December 2021, going up a combined total of 21lb in the handicap, and Ronan McNally’s gelding could have more to offer following a couple of efforts on the Flat in the autumn. Haute Estime was third in the Sefton at Aintree and returns to hurdles following a couple of below-par displays over fences. She is respected along with Wakool, who is likely to find this easier than his latest start at Haydock.
