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.

SECOND RACE
DON’T RIGHTLY KNOW opened her account in good style at Exeter in November and backed up that effort when second at Wincanton 19 days ago, so she is taken to resume winning ways as she makes only her fifth start under Rules. The 8-y-o can see PLAY SMARTER off the challenge of recent winner Ottoline, while Oneandahalfdegrees is one to note on her hurdling debut.

Probable S.P’s: 5-2 Bill Joyce (IRE), 11-4 San Frandisco (IRE), 4-1 Valfortore (IRE), 11-2 Les’s Destiny Star (IRE), 7-1 Jax Junior (GB) BILL JOYCE fetched a hefty sum after landing a point in February and he’s well worth a chance to defend his unbeaten record for all that there are some interesting newcomers in opposition, notably Valforte and Les’s Destiny Star. San Frandisco, who PLAY SMARTER showed a good level of form at Chepstow first time out, is also a player. TIMEFORM PREDICTION: 1.BILL JOYCE (IRE) 2.VALFORTORE (IRE) 3.LES’S DESTINY STAR (IRE)
