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
WHERE TO BET
There are a variety of places to bet at the course; The Tote has selling points throughout the racecourse - easily identified by the Tote Betting or totepool signs
The bookmakers are located in front of the grandstand in the ‘Betting Ring’. The bookmakers display their odds for each race and compete to offer the best price to customers. These are fixed price bets and the amount of your winnings will be printed on your betting slip. Search around to get the best price for your selection.
Mimimum Stakes
The Tote has a minimum bet of £2. The bookmakers vary but if they have a minimum it will be shown on the boards displaying their odds. If in doubt – just ask.

TOTNES looked a filly on the up until only fifth at Wolverhampton last time but she didn’t enjoy the rub of the green there and can bounce back in style off a still handy-looking mark. Wolverhampton-second Climate Precedent can pose the chief threat to Andrew Balding’s filly ahead of Butterfly Effect, who could also have a say if first-time blinkers have the desired effect.

HUL AH BAH LOO ran another solid race and likely would have been suited by a stronger gallop when third behind Covert Mission over C&D recently and he could be worth chancing to come out on top on this occasion. Lafan, who justified good support to score at Wolverhampton recently, is also firmly in the mix.

WEIGHTWATCHER: GRANDFATHER TOM won off a handicap mark of 64, his rating is now down 5lb to 59.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: PACOPASH trained by L Williamson, Tarporley, 210 miles.
THEREHEGOES went close over C&D last week and can go one better off the same mark. Grandfather Tom could strip fitter with last month’s reappearance behind him and is a potentially dangerous opponent now dropping to a 0-60 for the first time. Last-time-out C&D scorer Battle Point is also unlikely to be far away
