Race Description This is a six furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95. Once a horse has qualified for a handicap rating this is regularly reassessed. A below-par effort could result in a reduced rating whilst a strong performance could see the rating increased. Occasionally, horses are entered to race before their handicap rating has been reviewed and so to avoid recent winners being un-penalised they are allotted a mandatory penalty – usually 6lb

Leading course trainer (17-22): T Easterby (43 wins from 496 runners, 9%) runs MUSIC SOCIETY

PLAY SMARTER

A useful sprint. MR WAGYU was a highly creditable seventh in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot and could take a bit of stopping in this lower grade. Rock of England will be a threat if the blinkers continue to have a positive effect. Tinto is on a winning mark and is another to consider
