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.

The vote in this trappy-looking contest goes to FLIC OUVOYOU, who proved that his Uttoxeter effort in July (dead-heated at odds of 66/1 but subsequently demoted to second) was no flash in the pan when going close at Kelso last time. He remains well-handicapped based on his exploits when in the care of Paul Nicholls and has conditions in his favour There was much to like about the chase debut success of Boomslang and he is feared most ahead of Coqolino

CHICAGO GAL shaped as if back in form on her most recent Flat outing and gets the tentative vote to notch a second win over hurdles Purple Gown isn’t straightforward but potentially has a bit more to offer as a hurdler, especially when the emphasis is on speed. Cawthorne Cracker had the race at his mercy when coming to grief at the last at Sedgefield just over 3 weeks ago and warrants plenty of respect, also
