KEY Owner Breeding Breeder Jockey Trainer Sponsor Star Ratings Explained
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 birthplace of horse if not Great Britain

DURAN proved much sharper with his comeback run under his belt when second in a Nottingham maiden over the minimum trip 17 days ago and with the possibility of more to come (very well-bred) he earns the vote to go one place better Union Island, back from 8 months off/gelded could yet get back on track as a 3-y-o and rates the chief threat.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): T Carroll (54 wins from 473 runners, 11%) runs NIGHT BEAR TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): J Portman (1 win from 13 runners, 8%) runs MREMBO
WEIGHTWATCHER: NIGHT BEAR won off a handicap mark of 67, his rating is now down 6lb to 61.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: KITTEN’S DREAM trained by S Dixon, Rolleston, 205 miles.
MREMBO was a three-time scorer in 2023 and she looks weighted to regain the winning thread off a 1lb lower mark than when runner-up over C&D last time. Gallimimus didn’t enjoy the rub of the green when eighth that day and is rated next best ahead of in-form pair Night Bear and Pride of Nepal.

Market confidence behind Beautiful Sky on debut for the Kubler team would also need to be viewed positively.
