Total prize fund £12000

Owners Prize Money 1st £5039, 2nd £2519, 3rd £1260, 4th £630, 5th £314, 6th £157, 7th £79, 8th £40 (Penalty Value £5797.20)

Race Description

This is a seven furlongs handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 61 to 80. 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 a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

STARSHIBA: Following its run on 13/6/2023 it was reported that the horse ran too freely

Probable S.P.’s: 9-2 Metabolt (GB), 5-1 Danzan (IRE), 7-1 King Cabo (USA), 15-2 Paws For Thought (IRE), 8-1 Dolly Gray (GB), 9-1 Maywake (GB), 11-1 Brasil Power (FR), 14-1 Starshiba (GB), 18-1 Mabre (IRE), 28-1 Voltaic (GB), 66-1 Iconic Knight (IRE)

METABOLT displayed a nice turn of foot to quicken from last to first in a steadily-run race at Windsor and, with the possibility of more to come from this relatively lightly-raced 4-y-o, he is taken to complete the hat-trick. Next on the list is Paws For Thought, who probably wouldn’t want fast ground but is otherwise appealing given his course form and handy mark. King Cabo is another to consider along with Metabolt’s stablemate Dolly Gray but Danzan hasn’t been done any favours by the draw TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.METABOLT 2.PAWS FOR THOUGHT (IRE) 3.KING CABO (USA)

Horse Welfare

At all of our race meetings, there are three equine vets on duty They are equipped and positioned to give immediate care to a horse should it require it. This may involve screens being erected around a horse to give the veterinary team privacy to administer treatment and does not necessarily mean the worst. The same applies with doctors and jockeys.
