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

OFFICIAL BHA RATINGS EXPLAINED

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 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. You must be 18 or over to place a bet

You may be asked to provide proof of your age when placing a bet If you cannot produce this your bet will not be accepted

RACE STATS

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): J Goldie (49 wins from 463 runners, 11%) runs HUMBLE SPARK TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): J Goldie (2 wins from 11 runners, 18%) runs HUMBLE SPARK WEIGHTWATCHER: LEDNIKOV won off a handicap mark of 64, his rating is now down 8lb to 56. LONGEST TRAVELLER: BRISTOL HILL trained by K Frost, Newark, 159 miles.

RACE SUMMARY

Making just his second start for this yard, LAWMANS BLIS did well to reel in one that was on a roll atWolverhampton just under 2 weeks ago and remaining with some handicapping scope he can make light of a 4lb rise and follow up. Easter Island got back on track in first-time cheekpieces here last month, so he may emerge as the main threat, with the selection’s stablemate Lednikov and last year’s winner Bristol Hill another couple to consider

RACE SUMMARY

INISHERIN pulled clear of the rest when runner-up in what is traditionally a strong Newmarket maiden in September and looks the one to beat. Rogue Encore and First Alliance both showed plenty to work on when second at Kempton and Southwell respectively so are feared in what looks a decent novice.

SUNBLOCK justified market support to make a winning handicap bow in good style at Wolverhampton on debut for this yard on Saturday, showing much-improved form in the process, and should prove hard to beat under a penalty. Redondo only just failed to make it 2 from 2 in handicaps here last month and is an obvious threat, with Noble Consort another to consider having shaped very well third on his handicap debut over this C&D 6 weeks ago

RACE SUMMARY

DARING LEGEND (due to be 2lb higher in future) ran well on his first start for 6 months/debut for the Mick Appleby yard when a close-up third at Kempton on Saturday and, with the drop back to 6f expected to suit, he looks to hold solid claims with the possibility of more to come.

RACE SUMMARY

BLUE COLLAR LAD cemented the positive start made for his new yard when running out a convincing winner atWolverhampton 5 days ago and turned out under a penalty, he looks to hold sound claims in his follow-up bid. Captain Wentworth only narrowly failed to justify strong support at Chelmsford himself recently and he’s of firm interest dropping back to 6f Bernie The Bear and Dream Together are another couple to note.
