Star Ratings Explained
Each horse has been given a star rating, these are defined below:
Selected to win the race.
Good chance of being placed
By no means out of the reckoning but at least one or two hold stronger claims.
Unlikely to win but not totally without hope. 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 non-handicaps 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

While it’s true that ORANGESANDLEMONS doesn’t look especially progressive, she has, to her credit, found just one to good on each of her four starts and the Mayson filly is now presented with a golden opportunity to deservedly get her head in front. If she is to be beaten again, it will likely be one of the newcomers who will emerge on top, with Good Shot and Maundy Thursday the most likely-looking candidates. Zabeel Rain showed enough on debut at Kempton to also warrant consideration.
