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.

Stewards Note:

WHISKEY PETE: Following its run on 16/5/2024 it was reported that the horse lost its action.

REDHOT WHISPER: Following its run on 21/5/2024 it was reported that the horse hung badly left under pressure. PORTSMOUTH: Following its run on 3/5/2024 it was reported that the horse ran too freely.

Probable S.P’s: 3-1 Portsmouth (IRE), 7-1 Blake (GB), 17-2 Persica (IRE), 9-1 Bubbles Wonky (IRE), 12-1 Golden West (GB), 14-1 Hot Fuss (IRE), Whiskey Pete (IRE), Cool Legend (GB), 16-1 Grey Cuban (GB), 18-1 Prepschool (IRE), 22-1 Redhot Whisper (IRE), 40-1 Commander Crouch (IRE)

PORTSMOUTH did well to last as long as he did at Goodwood last month, considering the combination of a step up in trip/much more testing ground and a refusal to settle, so he remains of firm interest, especially now back at the scene of his reappearance success. Persica put in a sustained run from a long way back at Newbury on his most recent outing and ought to go well again, with Bubbles Wonky an interesting handicap debutant upped to a trip that promises to suit

RUNNING LION looked better than ever when runner-up in the Dahlia Stakes at Newmarket on her comeback last month and she should take plenty of beating back down in class. Sparks Fly had a remarkable 3-y-o campaign and is ready for a shot at this level after a respectable reappearance at Haydock, while there wasn’t much between Royal Dress and Breege in a Listed event at Goodwood 4 weeks ago.

Stewards Note:

REGAL REALITY: Following its run on 10/5/2024 it was reported that the horse was slowly away.

Probable S.P’s: 7-2 Highland Avenue (IRE), 4-1 Embesto (GB), 5-1 Regal Reality (GB), 7-1 Epictetus (IRE), 9-1 Royal Scotsman (IRE), 11-1 Sean (GER), Silver Sword (GB), 12-1 Royal Dubai (FR)

EMBESTO developed into a smart performer as a 3-y-o, dead-heating for success in a Group 3 at Salisbury, and he can resume his progress after a slow start left him on the back foot at Newmarket on his reappearance. With a hood added, he is taken to get the better of last year’s one-two in the race, with Highland Avenue feared most ahead of Regal Reality

GRANDLAD confirmed himself a useful sprinter in the making when adding to his tally over this trip at Goodwood 7 days ago, asserting close home having pulled clear with the runner-up. A 3lb rise for that looks fair and he shades the vote to complete the hat-trick. Due For Luck got firmly back on track and was unfortunate not to score on return and he’s feared, along with his Chester-conqueror Knicks, equipped with a first-time visor Sturlasson and Mashadi complete the shortlist

PLAY SMARTER

CLARENDON HOUSE arrives at the top of his game and his strong-travelling style is suited to this speedy track so he is taken to build on last year’s third here. The handily-weighted Silky Wilkie was runner-up in this 12 months ago and could emerge as the main danger, although a host of others can also have a say in a typically competitive Dash, notably Looking For Lynda, The Bell Conductor, Dream Composer and Live In The Moment

PLAY SMARTER

Aidan O’Brien might hold the key to this race yet again. While LOS ANGELES was no striking winner of the Leopardstown Derby Trial on his fast-ground reappearance, he was nicely on top at the line and looks sure to benefit from the step up to 1 1/2m. He won’t be inconvenienced should there be any ease in the going having won a Group 1 on soft at 2 and looks a solid alternative to stablemate City of Troy, who looked outstanding at 2 but bombed out in the 2000 Guineas. Macduff is next on the list

Churchella has been thriving of late and isn’t taken lightly, with Rogue Tornado also in the mix.

ZIGGY made a promising return to action from 15 months off when finding his well-handicapped stablemate too strong here over 1 1/4m just under 6 weeks ago, and with that outing sure to have blown away any cobwebs, Harry Eustace’s 6-y-o is taken to notch career victory number 4 at the expense of Dream Harder who is threatening to come good again soon judged on his recent Chester fourth. Kotari arrives in search of a 4-timer, and he can fight out minor honours with Asgard’s Captain.

PLAY SMARTER

An ultra-competitive closer to the Derby Festival and although he may be at least a couple years older than any of his rivals, MR WAGYU is selected to enhance his fine record in this race and snap a losing streak going back almost 2 years. Mums Tipple shaped quite well without being seen to best effect at Newmarket 4 weeks ago so he can give the selection most to think about, with Apollo One, Russet Gold and Strike Red a handful of others to consider, too.

HIGH ORDER is a colt firmly on the up, so John & Thady Gosden’s charge gets the vote to make a winning start to life in handicaps before potentially heading to Royal Ascot later this month. Wild Waves seemed to relish the increased stamina test when scoring on his handicap bow at Kempton recently, so he’s put forward as the main threat granted an even greater test, with East India Dock taken to edge out Ghostlore for third.

President Cup (UK Arabian Derby) Group 1PA £80,000 -August 17th

The UAE President Cup series is the oldest Purebred Arabian classic series, with 15 races scheduled across Europe, the Middle East, North Africa and the United States of America in 2024. The series was established by the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan to promote and celebrate the Arabian horse worldwide and its significant place in UAE culture and history.

The series renewed its association with the UK Arabian Derby (Gr1PA) with a prize fund of £80,000, when it moved to Doncaster in 2016 and the race has been aconsistent source of top class winners ever since. In 2024, the UAE President Cup series celebrates its 31st year of global competition. This year the 1m2f race takes place at Doncaster on Saturday 17th August.

RACE SUMMARY

Looks a strong race despite the small field. Upstart Crow ran up a sequence last year that was only halted in Group company. Already a three time winner at a mile and suited by any ground, he looks a worthy favourite from a yard in red hot form. Abiyah Athbah has been a grand servant but needs firm and has a lot of weight to give away to younger rivals Whilst Jameelaty looked promising on her return and is better off with Upstart Crow, the narrow preference is for stablemate MUTWAHHEJ ATHBAH. He emulated his dam by winning on debut and should be stronger this season. A good show today will see him back here in August for the UK Arabian Derby over 1m2f.
