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.

RACE SUMMARY

A competitive event in which marginal preference is for DUBAI CRYSTAL who handles these underfoot conditions well and could have improvement to come in 2024 now starting out for George Boughey with few miles still on the clock.The Bunt has yet to race on turf but is weighted to go well on the back of his very good Lingfield second last time out, while both Captain Haddock and Two Brothers need factoring in too.

RACE SUMMARY

BUST A MOVE continued his theme of race-by-race progress when signing off his 2-y-o campaign in the perfect fashion at Newmarket in the autumn, and with his revised mark more than fair, it’s worth chancing his fitness. Timeless Charm is the type to make up into a better 3-y-o so he’s on the shortlist, with Caelan also dangerous given he’s fit and in form

GREAT BRITISH BONUS SCHEME

The Great British Bonus (GBB) offers multiple bonuses of up to £20,000 per eligible race for British-bred fillies and mares.

CUSTOMERS OF THE BOARDS

Customers of the Boards and Rails bookmakers should check their itemised tickets immediately upon receipt, as mistakes cannot be rectified after the “off”. Customers are reminded to retain all betting tickets until after the weigh-in, as immediate payment will be made only on production of the original ticket. All tickets will remain valid for one month.

HORSE WELFARE COMES FIRST AT DONCASTER

At every race meeting at Doncaster our top priority is the safety and welfare of both horse and rider We have a dedicated team of highly qualified vets and doctors following the action at all times and a horse ambulance in attendance at every meeting.

Use of Screens

It is our policy to erect green screens around any horse requiring veterinary attention. This does NOT reflect the severity of any injury, but does help to provide a calm environment, in which the vet is better able to treat the horse.

Please do not assume the worst if you see screens erected around a fallen horse!

RACE STATS

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): D O’Meara (17 wins from 213 runners, 8%) runs PERCY SHELLEY AND STRESSFREE TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): N Mulholland (5 wins from 25 runners, 20%) runs BUCEPHALUS WEIGHTWATCHER: BARYSHNIKOV won off a handicap mark of 91, his rating is now down 7lb to 84.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: EUCHEN GLEN trained by J Goldie, Glasgow, 245 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

STRESSFREE built up a likeable profile last season and is very much the sort to make a better 4yo, so he makes plenty of appeal for an in-form yard. Ensured is well treated returning to turf, so he’s a big threat along with Baryshnikov, who tends to do well at this time of year.

LONGEST TRAVELLER: VIOLETS STAR trained by A West, Epsom, 187 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

SHOWALONG lurks on a handy mark and, given his proven suitability for testing conditions, gets the nod to make a winning return. Huddle Up largely held his form well in defeat last season and is respected, with Glory Fighter also considered on the back of a decent effort on all-weather last time
