TIMEFORMVIEW
Established himself as the best stayer in Europe last year, winning Goodwood Cup, Cadran at Longchamp and Long Distance Cup at Ascot. Took Nottingham Listed race on return but asking an awful lot of him to defy a mark of 120. TFR HHHII BHA 120
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
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.

RACE SUMMARY
Ruth Carr could hold the key to this race with her representatives ROCKIN ROSA and Brother Dave both holding strong claims It’s no great surprise that James Sullivan has opted to ride the hat-trick seeking Brother Dave but Rockin Rosa shaped really well back from a break at Southwell and she could be the answer. Angel of Antrim is a live candidate and is best of the rest, albeit Absolute Dream is also worthy of respect.
