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 nonhandicaps 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. For novice steeple chasers, the latest hurdle race rating may be shown until such time as the Handicappers allot a separate steeple chase rating. Such ratings are prefixed by the letter h.

Off the mark in fine style on his penultimate start, BRUNELLO BREEZE again ran well despite racing freely when finishing a close-up fourth over further here in November. He remains one to be interested in from this sort of mark and holds good claims back down in trip. Isle of Wolves quickly returned to form at Wolverhampton 9 days ago and he’s a threat, with Bristol Hill and Ledger also worth a look.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT NEWCASTLE Nothing matters more to us when racing than the safety and welfare of both horse and rider. Central to that is the track itself and our groundstaff do everything in their power to provide an optimum racing surface. On duty today we also have a dedicated and experienced team of highly-qualified Vets, Doctors and Paramedics following the action at every stage. Their key responsibility is to monitor and provide care to the competitors throughout their time at the racecourse. The locations and vehicle movements of these skilled specialists during racing are designed to provide a rapid response to any incident across the site. We also have a high-specification horse ambulance in attendance at every fixture to enable safe transport of a horse from the track to our on-site veterinary treatment facility for further treatment, or to the nearest equine referral hospital. It is our standard practice to erect screens around any horse or jockey requiring attention on the course as this provides privacy and a safe, calm environment in which to accurately diagnose and treat the patient as necessary. Please do not assume the worst if screens are erected around a horse. We are fully committed to minimizing risk in our sport, to dealing professionally and efficiently with any injury, and to maintaining the highest possible quality of care for the horses and jockeys racing here today. To find out more about our Equine Welfare policy, please visit our website www.newcastle-racecourse.co.uk 11

EIGHTH RACE 7.00 FIVE FURLONGS (5F) FOR FOUR YRS OLD AND UPWARDS

RACE STATS LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): J Goldie (43 wins from 470 runners, 9%) runs RORY TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): Miss L Perratt (2 wins from 5 runners, 40%) runs THE CALTONIAN LONGEST TRAVELLER: LOVE YOUR WORK trained by D Holland, Newmarket, 241 miles. RACE SUMMARY

THE CALTONIAN has sprouted wings since switched to the all-weather and an 8lb rise for his cosy success over 6f here recently is unlikely to be enough to stop him in his tracks. The 5-y-o coped well with the minimum trip when a close third over C&D three starts back and he should get a strong pace to aim at in this contest. Love Your Work and Honour Your Dreams both make each-way appeal, while an on-song Zuffolo would also be in with a shout.
