Racing Jargon Buster

Do not be put oﬀ by the weird terms you may hear on the racetrack. Like any traveller in a strange country, the novice racegoer will soon pick up a smattering of the language, and then rapidly become fluent. The following might help those racegoers keen to enhance their language skills.

ACCUMULATOR bet involving two or more selections in diﬀerent races: winnings from one are placed on the next

ALLOWANCE is the weight concession the horse is given to compensate for its rider’s inexperience

ALL WEATHER RACING flat racing which takes place on an artiﬁcial surface

AMATEUR (rider) on racecards, their names are preﬁxed by Mr, Mrs, Captain, etc., to indicate their amateur status

APPRENTICE young jockey tied by annually renewed contract to a licensed trainer while he or she is learning the business of race-riding

BACKWARD used of a horse which needs time to mature

CLAIMER of a race: a claiming race; of a jockey: an apprentice COLT male, ungelded horse up to four years old

COURSE SPECIALIST horse which tends to run well at a particular track

DAM mother of a horse

DISTANCE the length of a race: 5 furlongs is the minimum and the 4 1⁄2 miles of the Grand National the longest. Also, the margin by which a horse wins or is beaten by the horse in front: this ranges from a short head to ‘by a distance’ (more than 30 lengths); a ‘length’ is measured from the horse’s nose to the start of its tail

DISTANCE an unmarked point 240 yards from the winning post (thus ‘below the distance’ means closer home than that point)

DRAW for flat racing only, describes a horse’s position in the starting stalls, drawn randomly the day before

EVENS or EVEN MONEY when your stake exactly equals your winnings - thus £5 at evens wins a further £5

FILLY female horse up to four years old

FOAL horse of either sex from the time of its birth until 1 January the following year

FURLONG 220 yards (one eighth of a mile)

GELDING castrated horse

GOING the description of conditions underfoot on the racecourse. Official Jockey Club going reports progress as follows: Heavy - soft - good to soft - good - good to firm - firm - hard

GREEN (of a horse) inexperienced

HAND unit of four inches in which a horse’s height is measured, at the shoulder

JOLLY betting parlance for the favourite in a race - the horse with the shortest odds

JUDGE oﬃcial responsible for declaring the ﬁnishing order of a race and the distances between the runners

JUVENILE two-year-old horse

MAIDEN horse which has not won a race

MARE female horse ﬁve years and over

MONKEY betting parlance for £500

ODDS ON odds where the winnings are less than the stake (which is of course returned to you): thus a winning £2 bet at 2-1 on wins you £1

OFF THE BIT/OFF THE BRIDLE describes a horse being pushed along by his jockey, losing contact with the bit in his mouth

ON THE BIT/ON THE BRIDLE describes a horse going well within himself, still having a grip on the bit

OVER THE TOP where a horse is said to have gone if he has passed his peak for the season

PACE ‘up with the pace’ means close to the leaders; ‘oﬀ the pace’ means some way behind the leaders

PADDOCK area of the racecourse incorporating the pre-parade ring, parade ring and winner’s enclosure

PATTERN the elite races, divided in Flat racing into Groups One, Two, Three and Listed

PENALTY weight added to the allotted handicap weight of a horse which has won since the weights were originally published

PHOTO FINISH electronic photographic device which determines minimal distances in a close ﬁnish

PLATE shoe worn by horse for racing

PONY betting parlance for £25

RULE 4 betting rule covering deductions made from winning bets if a horse is withdrawn after the betting market has been formed but before the ‘Under Starter’s Orders’ signal; the amount deducted depends on the price of the withdrawn horse

RUN FREE describes a horse going too fast, usually early in the race, to allow it to settle

SCOPE the potential for physical development in a horse

SIRE father of a horse

STEWARDS the panel of men and women - usually a total of four - who are responsible for seeing that the Rules of Racing are adhered to

STEWARDS’ ENQUIRY enquiry by the stewards into the running of a race

TIC-TAC the bookmaker’s method of relaying odds information on the racecourse, by means of hand signals

WEIGH IN/WEIGH OUT weighing of jockey before and after a race to ensure that the correct weight has been carried; the announcement ‘weighed in’ signals that the result is oﬃcial, and all bets can be settled

YANKEE combination bet involving four selections in diﬀerent races: six doubles, four trebles and one four-horse accumulator - eleven bets

YEARLING horse of either sex from 1st January to 31st December of the year following its birth

THE PDM APPRENTICE HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a ﬁve furlongs handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 60. 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.

RACE STATISTICS

RACE SUMMARY: MATCH PLAY took another step back in the right direction when third at Redcar just over a fortnight ago and gets the nod to take advantage of his much-reduced mark fitted with first-time blinkers.

Second Race

RACE DESCRIPTION

This race is a six furlongs restricted maiden stakes for two-year-olds. Maiden races provide a starting point for young horses that are yet to record a victory and most will be very lightly-raced or be making their racecourse debuts. Previous experience can count for a lot when searching for the winner but well-bred or precocious juveniles are more than capable of landing the prize at the ﬁrst time of asking.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (20-25): R Fahey (31 wins from 172 runners, 18%) runs HARLEQUIN BAY

Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): C Johnston (4 wins from 46 runners, 9%) runs BLUE MANTLE

Longest Traveller: KOLKATA KNIGHT trained by T Dascombe, Lambourn, 367 miles.

BETTING FORECAST: 3-1 Harlequin Bay (GB), 10-3 Dacres Cross (IRE), 4-1 Blue Mantle (GB), 5-1 Kolkata Knight (IRE), 16-1 Our Boy Harry (IRE), 20-1 Mister Moet (IRE), 22-1 Rathmullan (GB), 33-1 Believeinthisone (GB) RACE SUMMARY: Those with experience don’t set the pulse racing so newcomers may well come to the fore KOLKATA KNIGHT is an early foal and a half-brother to a 5f winner, so he may well be sharp enough to get the job done. Harlequin Bay and Blue Mantle are other likely types on paper

THE PRIME SECURE WILLIAM WALLACE RESTRICTED MAIDEN STAKES (CLASS 4) (FOR HORSES IN BANDS B, C AND D) (GBB RACE)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This one mile and three furlongs contest for three to ﬁve-year-olds is another restricted maiden stakes - a race for horses that have yet to record a racecourse victory. There are a variety of reasons why the older horses in this race could still be maidens. Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career

ONE MILE about FOUR FURLONGS (12f abt 15yds) (2400m)

HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 3) (GBBPlus RACE)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile and four furlongs handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95. To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap In simple terms a horse rated 95 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 90.

HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 4)

RACE

DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile, one furlong and 35 yards handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 61 to 80. Once a horse has qualiﬁed for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par eﬀort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb.

RACE STATISTICS

RACE SUMMARY: Ed Bethell has a good record with new recruits and BORDOGAN gets the vote to make a winning start for his new trainer, with conﬁdence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Bubbles Wonky was an eyecatcher on his Doncaster reappearance and is second choice ahead of Linda Perratt’s Starliner.

THE MOLTON BROWN PROUD HAMILTON PARK PARTNER HANDICAP STAKES

(CLASS 6)

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a one mile and 68 yards handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 60. 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 mi nimum 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

RACE SUMMARY: HOSTELRY was an eyecatcher when caught in a pocket at Ayr last time and can take advantage of an attractive mark. Bay Dream Believer has run creditably in three consecutive handicaps since returning from a break and is feared most having dropped to her last winning mark. Dingwall shaped better than the result suggests on his comeback run after six months oﬀ and can make his presence felt.

RACE DESCRIPTION

This is a six furlongs handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 55. Like all handicaps on today’s card, this means that should a horse rated 55 take part they would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 50.

RACE STATISTICS

Leading course trainer (20-25): J Goldie (53 wins from 408 runners, 13%) runs IGNAC LAMAR & THUNDERSTORM KATIE

Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): T Easterby (11 wins from 79 runners, 14%) runs ISHE WORTH AGAMBLE

Longest Traveller: ISHE WORTH AGAMBLE trained by T Easterby, Malton, 203 miles.

BETTING FORECAST: 5-2 Ishe Worth Agamble (GB), 11-4 Ignac Lamar (IRE), 5-1 Back Tomorrow (GB), 11-2 Black Cab (FR), 12-1 Rain Cap (GB), 33-1 Bernie The Bear (IRE), 40-1 Thunderstorm Katie (GB)

RACE SUMMARY: Though disconcerting that he’s 0-16 on turf, IGNAC LAMAR is nevertheless appealing here on the back of a close third at Musselburgh. He did well to finish as close as he did that day (encountered traffic problems) and dropping back to 6f on this stiffer track won’t be an issue Recent Leicester winner Ishe Worth Agamble is the main danger, while Back Tomorrow is also shortlisted.
