1. FORM

EXPERT VIEW

A quick way to see a horse’s past performance. These are its recent finishing positions.

How the experts rate the horse’s chances:

Look out for Letters: C D CD BF

= Has won at this course = Has won over this distance = Has won over this distance at this course = Was a beaten favourite

MORE INFORMATION ON THE FORM / P F U R CO B S r

= New racing season = Missed racing season = Was pulled-up and didn’t finish the race = Horse fell = Rider unseated = Horse refused to race = The horse was forced out of a race by a loose horse = Horse was brought down = Horse slipped = The horse ran around a jump or took the wrong course in a flat race = Disqualified

d Bold form figures = performance in all-weather (Flat) or Point-to-Point (Jump) races

2. BHA rating = the higher the number, the better the horse.

3. Timeform view and TFR rating 4. HORSE’S TRAINER & THEIR LOCATION

Look out for the summary of leading course trainers before each race.

5. JOCKEYS Listen out for any jockeys who are having a successful day.

OTHER USEFUL DETAILS 6. Owner’s colours worn by the Jockey 7. Saddlecloth number 8. Horse’s name 9. Days since the horse last run 10. Horse’s age 11. Jockey’s weight (stone and Ibs) 12. The horse’s breeding – father (sire) and mother (dam) 13. Horse’s owner 14. Horse’s breeder 15. Birthplace of horse (outside GB)

BETTING EXPLAINED Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number.

Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.

Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.

Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.

‘To win’ is for your horse to come first.

‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.

Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

DECLARED RUNNERS 9 2022: NO CORRESPONDING RACE LAST YEAR Hood worn first time by No. 5. Tongue Strap worn by No. 2.

Stewards Note: BRIDGE: Following its run on 22/10/2023 it was reported that the horse ran too freely.

NORTHERN ROSE: Following its run on 27/10/2023 it was reported that the horse ran freely and hung right.

Probable S.P’s: 9-4 Climate Precedent (GB), 5-2 Royal Deeside (GB), 6-1 Salver (FR), 9-1 Excelero (FR), 16-1 Marrakushi (GB), 20-1 Kauto Kawai (FR), 33-1 Ceejaybe (GB), 40-1 Bridge (GB), 100-1 Northern Rose (IRE) Although ROYAL DEESIDE failed to win on the Flat he did achieve a decent level and gets the nod to make a successful start to his hurdle career for Alan King. Climate Precedent rates an obvious danger on the back of his hurdle debut second in the summer. Excelero PLAY SMARTER and Salver are newcomers who would enter the reckoning if the betting suggests they are fancied.

Tarras Wood looked potentially smart in overcoming inexperience to land a Wetherby bumper back in PLAY SMARTER December, so is a very interesting hurdling debutant, while Rockstown Native made a promising start in this sphere here last month and seems sure to improve.

GOLDEN SON made up into a smart hurdler during his time in France, and having displayed promise on his sole start over fences when last seen 18 months ago, he could well be worth siding with to make a winning return with the prospect of more to come in this sphere for his powerful yard. Iroko PLAY SMARTER had a fine season over hurdles last term and is feared along with Kilbeg King. Dual point-scorer Ballymackie is one to monitor closely in the betting on Rules debut.
