Looked smart when winning both 2-y-o starts. Encouraging return in the Dante and took his form to a whole new level in a well-run race when a decisive winner of the Great Voltigeur Stakes at York. This is the best form on offer and this trip may well unlock more. TFRHHHHH BHA115
KEY Owner Breeding Breeder Jockey Trainer Sponsor Br
Star
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.
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.
Allowance The weight concession the horse is given to compensate for its rider’s inexperience
Amateur (Rider) on racecards, their names are usually prefixed by Mr, Mrs, etc. to indicate their amateur license-holder status.
Apprentice A trainee Flat jockey connected to the stable of a licensed trainer. Apprentices have a weight allowance when they ride in races against professional jockeys and can compete for the annual Apprentice title, given to the winner of the most races during the season.
Bar Term used when describing bookmakers’ prices. e.g. ‘4-1 bar two’ means that you can obtain at least 4-1 about any horse except for the first two in betting.
Bit Metal part of the bridle that sits in a horse’s mouth. The reins are then attached to the bit and used by the jockey to control the horse
Blinkers A form of headgear worn by the horse, consisting of a hood with cups around the eyes They are used to limit a horse’s vision and reduce distractions, with the aim of making it concentrate.
Cheekpieces Strips of sheepskin that are attached to the side of a horse’s bridle They partially obscure a horse’s rear vision, with the aim of getting the horse to concentrate on racing.
Clerk of the Course Racecourse official responsible for the overall racecourse management, including the preparation of the racing surface.
Clerk of the Scales Racecourse official whose chief duty is to weigh the riders before and after a race to ensure proper weight is carried.
Colours Jacket (‘silks’) worn by jockey to identify a horse A horse runs in its owner’s colours which are registered with Weatherbys The colours to be worn by each jockey are shown on racecards.
Colt Male, ungelded horse, up to four years old
Conditions race A race in which horses are allotted extra weight according to factors including sex, age, whether they are a previous winner etc. This is a better-class race for horses just below Group or Listed level.
Connections The owner and trainer of a racehorse
Distance The length of a race
Dam Mother of a horse
Draw A horse’s starting position in the stalls allotted in races on the Flat. Stall numbers are drawn at random by Weatherbys (except in a handful of top races that allow each horse’s connections, having been randomly selected, to choose the stall number for their horse). A horse with a seemingly advantageous draw is said to be “well drawn”. Stalls are used for Flat racing only.
Filly Female horse four-years-old or younger
Foal Horse of either sex from its birth until 1 January the following year
Furlong 220 yards (one eighth of a mile). The numbered posts on British racecourses count the furlongs back from the winning post.
Gelding Castrated horse
Going Description of the course conditions under foot
Hand Unit of four inches in which a horse’s height is measured at the shoulder
Judge Official responsible for declaring the finishing order and distances between horses.
Juvenile Two-year old horse
Maiden Horse which has not yet won a race.
Handicap A race where each horse is allotted a different weight to carry, according to the official handicap ratings determined by the BHA Handicappers. The theory is that all horses run on a fair and equal basis - the ‘perfect’ handicap being one where all the runners finish in a dead-heat.
Mare Female horse aged five years old or above
Middle Distances On the Flat, races beyond a mile and up to 1m6f are the middle distances. A middledistance horse is one that runs mainly over such distances or is regarded as being suitable for those distances.
Penalty Weight added to the handicap weight of a horse which has won since the weights were published.
Photo Finish Electronic photo device which determines minimal distance in a close finish.
Racecard The runners and riders of the day within this raceday programme.
Rating A measure of the ability of a horse on a scale starting at zero and going into three figures Flat and Jump racing use different scales; the highest-rated Flat horse is usually in the 130s and the top-rated jumper in the 180s.
Schooled Trained to jump.
Sire Father of a horse.
Sprint races Flat races run over a distance of five or six furlongs.
Stewards Enquiry Enquiry by a panel of men and women responsible for seeing rules are adhered to into a race’s running.
Tongue Tie Strip of material tied around a horse’s tongue and lower jaw to keep it from swallowing its tongue, which can clog its air passage. A horse wearing a tongue tie is denoted on a racecard by a small t next to the horse’s weight (t1 indicates that the horse is wearing a tongue tie in a race for the first time)
Under Starter’s Orders Occurs when the race is about to start
Visor Similar to blinkers, but with a slit in each eye cup to allow some lateral vision. A horse wearing a visor is denoted on a racecard by a small v next to the horse’s weight (v1 indicates that the horse is wearing a visor in a race for the first time).
Weighing In/Out Each jockey (wearing his racing kit and carrying his saddle) must stand on official weighing scales before and after the race, so that the Clerk of the Scales can check that the jockey is carrying the correct weight allotted to his horse If a jockey is above the allotted weight before the race, his horse can still compete but must carry overweight. When the weights carried by the winner and placed horses have been verified after the race, there will be an announcement that they have ‘weighed in’. This confirms the race result and at this point bookmakers will pay out on successful bets.
Yearling Horse of either sex from 1 January to 31 December of the year following its birth.

WHAT IS YOUR ROLE AT DONCASTER RACECOURSE?
As the Stable Manager at Doncaster, I am responsible for preparing the 148 stables ready for each race meeting.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU WORKED AT DONCASTER RACECOURSE?
I have worked at Doncaster for 18 months but have worked for Arena Racing Company since 2019.
WHAT JOB DID YOU DO BEFORE YOU CAME TO WORK AT DONCASTER RACECOURSE?
I have worked in several roles for Arena Racing, including fence attendant, horse recovery driver and driving the lead car following the racing around the track with the doctor on board. I also run my own equine business washing, repairing and reroofing horse rugs.
HOW MANY ST LEGER FESTIVALS HAVE YOU WORKED?
This year will be my second St Leger Festival.
WHICH DAY OF THE FESTIVAL IS YOUR FAVOURITE AND WHY?
Definitely St Leger Day. It’s our biggest fixture of the year and we welcome runners and riders from all over the world.
WHAT DOES YOUR ST LEGER WORK WEEK LOOK LIKE?
We start preparing for the St Leger Festival after the last fixture in August. Every stable has to be emptied and steam cleaned ready to be bedded down again Once the stable s are bedeed down we have to concentrate on the yard to make sure its ship shape.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE ST LEGER MEMORY OR STORY?
My favourite memory has got to be 2023 I stood about six feet away from the King and Queen as they came to watch their horse Desert Hero, ridden by Tom Marquand, compete in the Betfred St Leger Stakes. I had to pinch myself as I’ve only ever seen the King and Queen on TV!
WHAT IS THE BEST THING ABOUT WORKING FOR DONCASTER RACECOURSE?
The best thing is my job! I absolutely adore it. Even though they can be log days, we all get on with the job and have a good laugh. There are no horses in the stables until race day, but when there are, there’s a huge buzz until the day is over
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE PART OF THE RACECOURSE AND WHY?
All of it – it’s an absolutely awesome place!
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE COLOUR?
Blue
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FILM?
Mary Poppins. It reminds me of Christmas. I still cannot believe how advanced the special effects were for the 60s.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE BAND OR SONG?
It’s got to be Stereophonics.

RACE SUMMARY
Plenty of collateral form this term amongst the first four runners across a variety of trips and underfoot conditions making this a very trappy contest Despite his age Paramer Angel can still go well giving weight away and the galloping track will play to his strengths, though is often best caught fresh. Assassen is a work in progress, but is much better off withVictoria from their last run over further, though both she and Zizania Du Mazet are from a stable in red hot form However AL HATAB, proven twice at this trip, is refreshed from a short break. His full brother was beaten a nose over course and distance by an Owen runner several years ago and he’s the narrow preference to gain revenge for connections today.
