Race Description This is a five furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds which have been rated from 46 to 60. Like most handicaps on the flat this race is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a minimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage

PLAY SMARTER

DEBYDINKS again went close to breaking his duck when runner-up at Newcastle 3 weeks ago and in the hope underfoot conditions don’t prove an issue, he could be up to getting off the mark. Teresa Grace, Cheyenne Nation and Fortunate Star head up the dangers.
