Star Ratings Explained
Br
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
HHHHH Selected to win the race
HHHHI Good chance of being placed.
HHHII By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.
HHIII Unlikely to win but not totally without hope HIIII Can be given little or no chance.
Official Bha Ratings Explained
The BHA Handicappers allot ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicappers to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability
The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the Handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring any penalties or allowances)
The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicaps races the rating shown is that of each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change to a rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating

RACE SUMMARY when sixth of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Southwell (5f) 24 days ago. Makes turf debut. TFRHHHII BHA66
PEARLY GAITS left previous efforts behind switched to a handicap when runner-up at Windsor last month and it would be no surprise should she be able to go a place better on this occasion. Cuban Grey was unable to replicate the form of his novice win back in handicap company last time, but he should be in the mix, with Imperiousity another fancied to feature.
