Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:

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

You must be 18 or over to place a bet

You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet

READ YOUR RACECARD
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 nonhandicaps 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 For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

Robert and Isobel Burbidge celebrating their Golden Wedding Anniversary with family and friends.

It is always a delight to come to Chepstow and a perfect place to enjoy the day. After meeting at the Lancashire College of Agriculture, Robert became more involved with horses as the years progressed. Isobel, started riding on a Shetland pony and rode Show Ponies and Show Hacks, with much success. Racing over the years has been a great joy and have had many winners both flat and over jumps with the Owners Group Syndicates and as a member of the Elite Racing Club.

It’s a great way to enjoy a day out with brilliant memories and you can combine it with hospitality in a private suite or a meal in the restaurant. You can come down to the Parade Ring and choose the ‘Best Turned Out’ horse and also present a prize to the winning owner before enjoying a post-race glass of bubbly. The package also includes photographs of your day and a mention in the racecard and on the big screen.
