STAR RATINGS EXPLAINED
OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED
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

Stewards Note:
KEEL STRAND: Following its run on 19/2/2025 it was reported that the horse made a respiratory noise.
Probable S.P.’s: 5-6 Knights Affair (GB), 9-4 Keel Strand (FR), 16-1 Oval Street (IRE), 20-1 Highway Hero (GB), 22-1 Chief Black Robe (IRE), 66-1 Mr Daytona (IRE), 80-1 Locked Down Lad (GB)
Despite being easy-to-back KNIGHTS AFFAIR emerged on top starting out over hurdles at Huntingdon last month and he looks capable of defying a penalty in a race of this nature. Keel Strand has undergone a wind op following a rather underwhelming display at Ludlow and, if able to belatedly build on his debut promise in this sphere, he is by far the one most likely to make a race of it with the selection. Oval Street is likely to claim minor honours

Compensation awaits ILLOGICAL LOGIC, who had the race at his mercy when exiting at the second-last over 21f here last week Moving back up in trip is unlikely to be an issue and he is a sizeable step ahead of the handicapper at present. Grand Sabre was something of a surprise winner at Warwick on his second start over fences, but he’s given the benefit of the doubt and, assuming that that was no fluke, he could emerge as second best here ahead of Moonlight Artist

The vote goes to FEVER DREAM, who has seemingly turned the corner since undergoing wind surgery, following his breakthrough success over fences at Southwell with an equally good effort when third at Fakenham where the 29f trip proved to be a stretch. Provided he copes with this significant decrease in distance (Southwell win was at around 3m), the 7-y-o should prove a tough nut to crack Pooroldmackley is second choice ahead of Culligran and Limerick Leader

HORSE WELFARE AT NEWTON ABBOT
At all race meetings held at Newton Abbot Racecourse there are three specially qualified Veterinary surgeons appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action. One vet will attend the start and follow the race in his/her vehicle and attend fallen, lame or pulled up horses Another vet will observe the finishing straight from the small stand beside the last fence in the final straight. They will immediately attend fallen or lame horses at this last fence or flight of hurdles.
If directed, they may be required to attend other incidents in the final straight. The third vet will be available to complete the treatment of urgent cases within the stable yard. This third vet will, if not otherwise occupied, observe the race from the bank at the outside of the track by the ‘in-line’ steward’s box and be available to attend horses finishing the race
In the event of two vets being occupied treating an emergency case, the SVS will follow horses. Whenever possible, one of the Veterinary Surgeons should be present in the Unsaddling Enclosure after each race
USE OF SCREENS
It is now standard practise for screens to be erected around any horses when receiving veterinary attention. This does not reflect the severity of any injury, but allows the vet some privacy and the horse a calm environment in which to make a recovery.
Please do not therefore assume the worst if you see the screen erected around a fallen horse.

Successful on the Flat on his penultimate start, SERAPHIC has shaped well in a pair of hurdle runs either side of that victory and can come out on top from this sort of mark.
