EACH HORSE HAS BEEN GIVEN A STAR RATING, DEFINITION BELOW: Unlikely to win but not totally without hope.

Selected to win the race.

Can be given little or no chance.

Good chance of being placed.

By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.

BET TING WITH THE BOOKMAKERS DIFFERENT WAYS TO BET - WIN OR EACH-WAY

The two main types of bet are win and each-way. For win bets, your horse needs to win the race outright. An each-way bet is effectively two bets – one for your horse to win and one for it to be placed. So a £2 each-way bet will cost £4. A bookmaker taking each-way bets will display the terms on which they accept such bets on their board.

In conjunction with The RCA, the bookmakers have introduced standard each-way terms. Bookmakers will provide these terms, or better, when offering each-way betting.

• Fewer than 3 runners - Win bets only, no places offered • 3 or 4 runners – Win bets only . Where a bookmaker wishes to depart from this default position they may offer place terms at 1/5 odds a place 1-2.

• 5 – 7 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1-2 • 8 or more runners – 1/5 odds a place 1-2-3 • Handicaps with 12 to 15 runners (inclusive) – 1/4 odds a place 1-2-3 • Handicaps with 16 to 21 runners (inclusive) – 1/5 odds a place 1-2-3-4 • Handicaps with 22 or more runners – 1/4 odds a place 1-2-3-4

PL ACING YOUR BET

Shop around for the best odds. When you have decided where to place your bet, state the number of your horse and the stake, for example “Number 4, £2 win”. Listen to the bookmaker repeat the number of the horse and the stake to their clerk and hand them your money. You will then be given an itemised receipt detailing your bet and potential winnings. You should keep this safe until you have heard ‘Weighedin’ announced after the race. If your bet is successful, hand your ticket to the bookmaker and they will give you your winnings.

Raceday preview from Weatherbys A strong field of 14 go to the post for the Weatherbys nhstallions.co.uk Mares’ Novices’ Hurdle, a Class 4 event over two miles, in which Presenting Nelly carries a double penalty for a brace of hurdle successes in September.

Dan Skelton’s mare is a strong stayer at this trip, and with a win on heavy ground last time at Newton Abbot, will relish the stamina test this may turn into in the testing conditions. Dan Skelton landed the contest last year with Royale Dance and the six-year-old sets the standard on hurdles form.

Presenting Nelly carries a double penalty for a brace of hurdle successes but she is a strong stayer at this trip.

Of the others with experience over hurdles, Lucinda Russell’s Dangan Cloud offered plenty of promise in her debut second at Hexham last month. The fiveyear-old perhaps went a little too quick on the front end and her finishing effort petered out, but it would be of no surprise to see Derek Fox bowl out in front again here dropped back in trip.

Lunar Discovery brings some solid bumper form into the mix here, bolting up on debut at Hexham before backing that up with another victory in testing conditions at Wetherby. James Moffatt’s six-year-old found the Grade 2 Aintree Bumper a little too much to close the campaign but she was far too keen that day and that effort can be excused. She WEATHERBYS RACEDAY PREVIEW

is a strong travelling type and could be one to follow now embarking on a novice hurdle campaign. Chosen Hero finished well behind that rival at Ayr last term and has a fair bit to find on bumper form but is a Point-to-Point winner who will go well on the ground.

Sandy Thomson’s Blue Baloo got off the mark at the second time of asking in a good Newcastle bumper and backed that up with an encouraging fourth at Kelso in a race that has since worked out well, with both the second and the sixth winning on hurdles debut. The dam is an unraced half-sister to the smart Oscar Whisky, a Grade 1 winner over both hurdles and fences for Nicky Henderson, and there is plenty of promise entering the season for this five-year-old.

Rogue Queen was winless in three bumpers but did chase home the smart Little Miss Dante at Southwell on her last start, Olly Murphy’s mare an impressive winner on hurdles debut at Ayr last week.

The five-year-old has since switched yards from Harry Whittington to Sue Smith but is one who may want a further trip in time and may find this on the sharper side. Donald McCain’s Chatshow Host is another who may want to go further in time, twice a winner in the Point-to-Point scene and slightly outpaced in his only bumper start last term. The four-year-old Spring Wind arrives here from the flat; rated 65 on the level, she may have a little bit to find on hurdles debut for Tristan Davidson.
