Timeform Rating
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS
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

CITY SELECTIONS ELUSIVE TIGER is less exposed than many of his rivals and, given the step up in trip could unlock further improvement, the Archie Watson-trained gelding looks worth siding with here. Native Melody has a similar profile and, having returned from a short break with a solid effort at Wolverhampton last month, she also commands respect. Steven Seagull and Charlie’s Yard complete the shortlist. ELUSIVE TIGER

LIBERATED LAD: Following its run on 21/11/2023 it was reported that the horse was slowly away.

Liberated Lad is weighted to have a big say if on his PLAY SMARTER A-game while Native Melody is another who can go well if the blinkers have the desired effect once more.

CITY SELECTIONS Tony Carroll has his string in good order and DANEHILL STAR can be the latest stable inmate to boost the coffers. On the back of a much-improved effort at Wolverhampton 19 days ago, the son of Ten Sovereigns seems ideally suited to this sort of stamina test and, off just a 3lb higher mark, this looks within his reach. The recently-gelded Bargain Basement is another with scope for improvement, while Rising Force also enters calculations. DANEHILL STAR

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE
for novice two yrs old x Total prize fund £9999 Owners Prize Money. 1st £4267, 2nd £2133, 3rd £1067, 4th £533. (Penalty Value £5399.46) Weights raised 3lb and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.
CITY SELECTIONS Mrs Morrell represents Flat racing’s champion training team and, while she is far from a stable star, she appeals strongly in this grade. That said, she was ultimately well held in both of her previous starts and could again be vulnerable here. POST RIDER fits the bill as one who can deliver a finishing kick and, having shaped with promise when second over 7f here on debut last month, she edges preference as a potential improver. King Of Codes looks the most noteworthy debutant. POST RIDER

CITY SELECTIONS PERSIAN BLUE found only a subsequent winner too strong in a maiden at Nottingham in September and a similar level of performance could be good enough to see the filly shed her maiden tag here. It’s Showtime didn’t quite progress as expected when beaten almost nine lengths at Lingfield last month, but Conrad Allen’s charge may give the selection most to think about, ahead of On Song.

CITY SELECTIONS Q TWENTY BOY has posted a pair of runner-up efforts at this venue since his C&D triumph in September and the eight-year-old could be worth sticking with this evening.

CITY SELECTIONS Court Of Session wasn’t far off a career-best performance when a close-up second at Southwell last month and this two-time C&D winner must enter calculations off only 3lb higher. However, KEYSER SOZE did well from an uncompromising position to finish runner-up over track and trip off 2lb lower last month and the nine-year-could could go one place better from a good draw in stall two. Urban Sprawl often gives his running and he shouldn’t be far away either. KEYSER SOZE

CITY SELECTIONS WILDE AND DANDY may have disappointed at Wolverhampton last time out but he was a determined winner over C&D on his penultimate start and still looks feasibly treated off a 4lb higher mark. He can get the better of the unexposed Top Button, who should improve for going back up in trip, and the consistent Got No Dollars. Dagmar Run has almost five lengths to make up with the selection from that meeting over C&D last month, but he is 3lb better off with that rival this evening. WILDE AND DANDY

Got No Dollars is on a long losing run but he’s been holding his form well in recent months PLAY SMARTER and should be on the premises, while Wilde And Dandy, who scored over C&D on his penultimate start, is another to consider.
