Official BHA Rating
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
★★★★★ Selected to win the race.
★★★★✩ Good chance of being placed.
★★★✩✩ By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims
★★✩✩✩ Unlikely to win but not totally without hope
★✩✩✩✩ Can be given little or no chance
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.

PLAY SMARTER
Preference is for EYES FRONT, who has found just one too strong the last twice and Edward Smyth-Osborne’s colt can continue on his upward trajectory with first-time headgear employed. His main threat may emerge from This Guy, who steps up to 7f for the first time and should be capable of better now handicapping. Sioux Perfect and Sweet Lord can fight out third.

A chance is taken on MUHIB from a further reduced mark back from a break having not been seen to best effect on 3 of his last 4 handicap starts (snatched up 1f out on most recent outing). Spartan Times is fully 15lb higher than when winning at Ffos Las the previous week but scored in cosy fashion that day and warrants plenty of respect nonetheless, with Ricardo Phillips completing the shortlist.

Horse Welfare at Leicester Racecourse
At every meeting at Leicester Racecourse there are two specially-qualified equine vets appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action. During the race one vet will be following the runners and can attend to a horse in the same response time as the Paramedic Teams responsible for treating injured jockeys The second vet is based below the stewards box in the grandstand, is in radio contact with his colleague following the runners, and can respond immediately to any uncovered emergency. In addition there is a third vet, a British Horseracing Authority Veterinary team and the stewards
The Racecourse also employs a specialist Horse Ambulance Team, equipped with a modern equine ambulance to enable injured horses to be transported safely to a veterinary hospital for treatment. It is now standard practice for screens to be erected around any horse receiving veterinary attention on the course This does not reflect on the severity of an injury, but allows the vet some privacy in which to administer treatment and provides the horse with a calm environment in which to make a recovery. Please do not assume the worst if you see screens erected around a fallen horse

TOOTA has been threatening to come good and she has been found a suitable opening here. Though Currahee has yet to trouble the judge, he has shown signs of ability and is interesting on debut for the Stuart Williams yard, while My Boy Harry and No Gain, a winner in Jersey last month, are others to consider
