THE AJA NOVICE FLAT AMATEUR

HANDICAP STAKES (CLASS 6)

JOCKEYS’

(for riders with no more than 3 wins at start of season) for three yrs old and upwards ¨ Total prize fund £6000 Owners Prize Money. 1st £2590, 2nd £1295, 3rd £647, 4th £324, 5th £162. (Penalty Value £2980.20)

Race Description This is a six furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 65. 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 All jockeys in this race are amateur jockeys

Race Stats Leading course trainer (17-22): J Camacho (10 wins from 97 runners, 10%) runs NICKLEBY

Trainer-in-form (last 14 days): N Tinkler (6 wins from 30 runners, 20%) runs PARR FIRE

Weightwatcher: MERRY SECRET won off a handicap mark of 62, his rating is now down 13lb to 49.

PLAY SMARTER

A tricky opener to solve but preference is for LET’S GO HUGO, who ran one of this season’s better races when third at Wolverhampton 4 weeks ago and is fancied to be bang there if in the same mood back on turf. Hobson Point struggled to get involved in the mud last time so he may emerge as the main danger back on a sounder surface, with Parr Fire and Mumcat also considered.

for novice two yrs old ¨ Total prize fund £8000 Owners Prize Money. 1st £3414, 2nd £1706, 3rd £854, 4th £426. (Penalty Value £4320) Weights raised 3lb and paragraphs 27 to 31 of the Weights and Handicapping Code complied with where applicable.

Race Description This contest is another Novice Stakes, this time run over a distance of seven furlongs 218 yards There are a variety of reasons why the two-year-olds in this race are still light on experience

Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career

BELLA WELLA: Following its run on 28/7/2023 it was reported that the horse ran too soon after its last trip.

TRUST TIME: Following its run on 1/8/2023 it was reported that the horse ran green.

Probable S.P’s: 4-6 Thyer (GB), 8-1 Scottish Reel (IRE), 10-1 Times Ticking (GB), 11-1 Sayalittleprayer (GB), 14-1 Bella Wella (GB), 25-1 Miaswell (IRE), 66-1 The Crafty Mole (GB), 100-1 King of Cali (IRE), Trust Time (GB)

This would appear to represent a very good opportunity for THYER to build on his Newbury debut third. The Charlie Johnston newcomer Scottish Reel makes plenty of paper appeal and might be the one to give Andrew Balding’s charge most to think about ahead of Times Ticking, who more than hinted at ability on his Newcastle debut.

CINDERELLA’S DREAM stood out on paper and won with much more in hand than the winning margin of a neck would suggest at Lingfield on debut, so she is taken to follow up with improvement to come over this longer trip.

Race Description This is a six furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 76 to 95. 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.

FAST AND LOOSE ran well after an 11-week break when third at Redcar 20 days ago and, having only had the 3 starts so far this season, he can take a step forward to record a first win of the year With the benefit of his recent run, the 4-y-o can reverse the placings with Tinto from when the pair met last time, while Ingra Tor also enters calculations back down in grade.

Race Description This is a seven furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 81 to 100.To qualify for a handicap rating horses must have run at least three times in a Flat race in Britain, or have run in no more than two Flat races run in Britain and won at least one of them. This rating then dictates the weight to be carried in a handicap In simple terms a horse rated 100 in this particular race would be required to carry 5lb more than a rival rated 95.

Stewards Note:

THE COOKSTOWN CAFU: Following its run on 28/6/2023 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run.

Probable S.P’s: 10-3 Gweedore (GB), 11-2 Mount Athos (GB), 7-1 Scottish Summit (IRE), 8-1 The Cookstown Cafu (GB), 9-1 Persuasion (IRE), 10-1 Documenting (GB), 11-1 Danzan (IRE), 14-1 Titan Rock (GB), 16-1 Symbolize (IRE)

SCOTTISH SUMMIT had a bit up his sleeve when scoring here in May and, with his latest run at York best excused, he’s worth chancing to resume winning ways if the race is run to suit. The hat-trick seeking Gweedore is an obvious threat and The Cookstown Cafu shouldn’t be ruled out.

Race Description This is a seven furlongs and 218 yards handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 65. 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, in this race that is 8st 4lb This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage
