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.

Runswick Days won The Santander In Memory of Robert Forster Handicap Steeple Chase at Sedgefield on Tuesday 11th November 2014.

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.

ROCCOS INSPIRATION looks tricky to oppose after making a successful UK debut at Uttoxeter last month. Ragosina is yet to build on the promise of her hurdles bow but still appeals as the danger ahead of Jubilee Girl.

RACE SUMMARY

BIG BEE HIVE justified support with an improved showing to make a winning chasing debut at this course last time and, with more to come, he’s narrowly preferred to Heeztheboy, who has also made a promising start in this sphere. Jersay du Trottet is the pick of the remainder.

It could be worth rolling the dice with CAILIN DEARG, who hasn’t fired in a handful of appearances so far this season but she’s been given a real chance by the handicapper It’s likely that Wholeofthemoon will be in the thick of things and he is feared most ahead of Halpha Soleil and handicap-debutant Thank You Blue

RACE SUMMARY

FORTUITOUS FIND is a winning pointer and his three runs over hurdles probably didn’t get to the bottom of him, so he’s worth chancing making a quick switch to chasing for his handicap debut. Monaghan Boy arrives in good order and should put up another bold showing, while a return to form is expected from Elleon.

HORSE AND JOCKEY WELFARE AT SEDGEFIELD RACECOURSE

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 highspecification 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.

RACE SUMMARY

MAJOR FORTUNE arrives on a roll so is hard to oppose saddling a 7lb penalty for his ready Lingfield success last time out provided he is none the worse for an intended run at Lingfield on Thursday. Rumble B is weighted to have a say and rates the main danger, with veteran Breizh Alko not discounted either if on his A-game

RACE SUMMARY

C&D winner COUP DE COEUR wasn’t seen to best effect when fourth over C&D last time and is taken to bounce back in style here off a 1lb lower mark. Handicap-debutant Quaresome should find this return to a shorter trip in his favour and is very much one to consider along with the consistent Calevade
