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.

LEADING COURSE TRAINER (19-24): J Goldie (49 wins from 472 runners, 10%) runs ALPINE SIERRA TRAINER-IN-FORM (LAST 14 DAYS): J Butler (3 wins from 16 runners, 19%) runs KAARANAH

LONGEST TRAVELLERS: KAARANAH trained by J Butler & FALCON NINE trained by C Fellowes - both Newmarket, 241 miles.

KAARANAH ran well under a change of tactics when third to Urban Road over C&D at the beginning of the month and is now 4lb better off with that rival, so he’s taken to reverse the form and come out on top. Falcon Nine probably isn’t the most straightforward but is up to defying his current mark when things fall right, while Alpine Sierra remains feasibly treated on old form for his recent C&D success

This looks a good race with plenty of in-form horses on show, but it could pay to side with the less obvious SWISS ACE, who shaped well under a negative ride when fifth behind Red Maids over C&D earlier this month and he looks ready to strike from a reduced mark (won this race last year). Bravo Zulu and the aforementioned Red Maids head up the dangers, with Harry Did and King’s School both certainly not out of things, either

A few horses that like to go forward here, and THE RIDDLER could be the answer to this tricky puzzle Drawn in stall 2 with pace around him, he should get a nice toe into the race and can follow up his success at this venue last week. Hat-trick seeking Darlo Pride is drawn next to the selection, and can chase him home, while Brian The Snail can hit the frame with a better break from the stalls
