Star Ratings Explained

Eachhorse hasbeen given astarrating, theseare definedbelow:

HHHHH Selectedtowin therace.

HHHHI Good chance of being placed

HHHII By no meansout of thereckoning but atleast one or twoholdstrongerclaims

HHIII Unlikelytowin butnot totallywithout hope

HIIII Canbegiven 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.

You must be 18 or over to place a bet

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

COMMITMENT TO HORSE WELFARE

We are committed to minimising risks, dealing quickly and humanely with injuries and maintaining the highest level of care At every meeting there are three specially qualified Equine vets appointed to look after the welfare of all horses in action

A British Horseracing Authority Veterinary Officer is also in attendance working closely with the racecourse veterinary team. This is to ensure that any injury to a horse is recorded, so that it can be monitored when it returns to racing.

It is now a standard practice for screens to be erected around any horse receiving veterinary attention on the course This does not reflect the severity of an injury, but allows the vet some privacy in which to administer treatment and provides the horse with a calmer environment Please do not assume the worst if you see screens erected around a fallen horse.

To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy, please visit our website: www.fontwellpark.co.uk

RACE SUMMARY

A case can be made for all of these but WEWILLGOWITHPLANB easily got off the mark on his first go over fences here for Richard Bandey and now reverts to this sphere after a solid third over hurdles. He looks to have more to offer so gets the vote ahead of recent Sandown scorer Hudson de Grugy, although the returning Hell Red and Milton Harris’new recruit Ikarak need factoring in too.

RACE SUMMARY

Several of these arrive with something to prove but JIGGINSTOWN KING shaped better than the distance beaten suggested at Hereford 4 weeks ago so, having been dropped 5lb on the back of that effort, Oliver Signy’s charge gets the tentative nod. Doctor Foley was placed in an Irish point so he may emerge as the main danger on chasing debut, ahead of Who Is That.
