THE TRAINING COURSES AVAILABLE AT SCOTTISHRACINGACADEMY.CO.UK HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6) (DIV I)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one-mile handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 55. Like most handicaps on the flat this race is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a minimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is. This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage. FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS, NUMBER OF DECLARED RUNNERS 10

Hamilton Park Executive will present a memento to the winning owner. In addition, they will present a cash prize to the person in charge of the horse judged to be the best turned out in this race. Owners Prize Money. Winner £1835; Second £917; Third £459; Fourth £251; Fifth £240; Sixth £240; Seventh £240; Eighth £240. (Penalty Value £2322)

BETTING FORECAST: 4-1 Chinese Spirit (IRE), 5-1 Shine On Brendan (IRE), 6-1 Bawaader (IRE), 7-1 Retirement Beckons (GB), 8-1 Hildenley (GB), 11-1 Irish Eileen (GB), 12-1 Canford’s Joy (IRE), 14-1 One Last Hug (GB), Perfect Soldier (IRE), 50-1 New Rhythm (GB) RACE SUMMARY: A decidedly trappy class 6 handicap with the tentatvie vote in favour of HILDENLEY. He remains less exposed than most he meets here and can have his latest run at Carlisle overlooked having gone off too hard. Now operating from a career-low mark, he may well have a race of this nature in him. Chinese Spirit and Bawaader are a couple of others to consider. 1-2-3: 1.HILDENLEY 2.CHINESE SPIRIT (IRE) 3.BAWAADER (IRE)
