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
THE FGH SECURITY HANDICAP HURDLE RACE (CLASS 4)
for four yrs old and upwards ¨ Total prize fund £7850 Owners Prize Money. 1st £3171, 2nd £1585, 3rd £793, 4th £396, 5th £198. (Penalty Value £4145.58)
2m 6f 31y
Race Description The third race of the day is a two mile, six furlong, 31 yard handicap hurdle race that has been designed for four-year-olds and upwards which are rated from 0 to 120. In most National Hunt handicaps, there is a minimum weight of 10st so any horse whose official rating would allocate them less than that still has to shoulder that burden. The horses that fall into this category are said to be racing from ‘out of the handicap’ – usually a distinct disadvantage.

3m 1f 83y
Race Description This is a three miles, one furlong, 83 yard handicap hurdle race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 0 to 110. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 60 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 170.

PLAY SMARTER
A tricky finale to solve but the suggestion is CHECK MY PULSE, who shaped much better than the bare result after a troubled passage when finishing with a flourish at Hexham just over a fortnight ago. A first-time tongue tie goes on and Rebecca Menzies’ charge can double his tally over the larger obstacles A Mere Bagatelle won over hurdles here last year and heads up the dangers after a facile success at Kilbeggan 4 weeks ago, ahead of Getaway Luv and Follow Your Arrow.
