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.

YOUNG FIRE really ought to have a race in him from a mark in the low-60s and might be able to end the winning run of penalised hat-trick seeker Beylerbeyi. Lightly-raced handicap newcomer Thanks Dad should also have a say.

William Haggas won this with a filly in the Sunderland Holding silks a couple of years and can repeat the feat with SEA REGAL, who won nicely over 1 1/4m at Ripon last time and should have more to come now moving up in trip. The Normandie Stud colours were carried to victory in this by Sweet William 12 months ago so don’t be surprised to see French Master leave his debut effort well behind Crown of India looks best of the rest

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!

WEIGHTWATCHER: ANGLE LAND won off a handicap mark of 80, her rating is now down 6lb to 74.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: MISS ATTITUDE trained by J Channon, West Ilsley, 163 miles.
This looks likely to be run at a brisk pace and that should play firmly to the strengths of HARVANNA. She looked unlucky not to finish closer having met some trouble when fifth in a big-field York handicap 7 weeks ago and she can prove her revised mark an exploitable one. Angel Shared and Miss Attitude both arrive on the back of career-best displays and can provide the lead threats
