RATING EXPLAINED
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 RATING
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.

A mouthwatering clash between unbeaten pair DESERT FLOWER and Lake Victoria. The latter won Group 1s over 3 different trips last season and isn’t opposed lightly but Godolphin’s charge couldn’t have been more impressive in the Fillies’ Mile over C&D and is narrowly preferred. Best of the rest could be Red Letter, who pushed Lake Victoria close on her debut and wasn’t too far behind her in the Moyglare either despite things not going her way

Race Summary: A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for WANNABEAWALLABY to build on his resurgent Bath second and get off the mark The returning Grey Owl figures on a lenient mark and could emerge as the chief threat, although Ray’s The One and Fram Castle also need factoring in.
