CD = Course & Distance Winner D = Distance Winner BF = Beaten Favourite Last Time Out 13. BHA Rating 14. Star Rating STAR RATINGS 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. TO PLACE A BET Place Your Bets Betting is quite straightforward and can be fun for as little as £2. There is no fool proof way of picking a winner; the odds and the racecard can give you a good guide but you can also have as much luck picking your horse by the name or colour of the silks. Bet In Two Ways 1. Betting with the tote a quick, easy and friendly service. You’ll find tote betting points all around the racecourse and it will give you a better choice of bets with the lower minimum stake of £2. Look at the counters for the tote how to bet guides. 2. Bookies these are all in front of the Grandstand and take only two bets TO WIN and EACH-WAY The bookies offer ‘odds’ on all the horses and you are best to shop around for the best odds. These are given in fractions, such as 8/1.

TFR##### BHA72 BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE Race Description The first of four handicaps today is a one mile race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 56 to 75. 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 Description The third consecutive handicap today is a one mile four furlong race for three-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.

This looks an intriguing novice with the vote in favour of CAPTAIN WINTERS. Kevin Ryan’s charge progressed from his debut effort when finding only a potentially smart newcomer too strong at Haydock in June and with the prospect of even more to give he can come out on top. Farhhfromforgotten is a very interesting newcomer (holds Group-race entries) and is worth a look, with Runaholic, Ohnojoe and Novaportian completing the shortlist.

Race Description Our fourth handicap of the day is a seven furlong race for three-year-olds which have been rated from 56 to 75. 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.
